Reception

[edit | edit source]

Daniel Rester of Film Threat gave it a 6/10 rating saying, "just when I was beginning to wonder if The Bell Keeper had anything new to add, the script by Joe Davison and Luke Genton throws the audience a curveball during the midpoint ... offers an enjoyable horror ride for undemanding genre fans."[6]
