Reviews:
“It’s four fashionable rockstars against all manner of creatures who bleed, barf and otherwise defile the screen with a buffet of bile. It’s also 75 minutes long and has no interest in explaining to you why this is happening, who most of the people are and what the rules are of the infection.” B&S About Movies
“It’s one of the grossest movies of this decade so far. Beneath buckets of disgusting practical effects is an undeniable charm. I foresee it finding its fanbase soon, and I think it’s worth the rental/subscription price for many folks.” 3.5 out of 5, Dread Central
“Even though there are certain cliches present it’s a female led horror with bite or should we say splatter. If you are not a gorehound stay away from Pussycake it’s not for you. This is punk rock sci fi horror in it’s purest form so the audience that loves that dynamic will flock to Pussycake in droves!” 3 out of 5, Horror Movies Uncut
“Parés’ film is pretty non-stop once it gets going, which is both good and bad. On the one hand, Pussycake leaves you breathlessly entertained, but there are a lot of little plot points that the movie steamrolls through and never provides further explanation […] there’s never any real clarification or altruistic heroics outside of the band circle, just a helluva lot of gore.” Horror Obsessive
” …PussyCake is a fast, swift, nonsensical gross-out with lively leading ladies […] and enough attitude to get by. It has some of the feel of ‘80s oddities like Death Warmed Up or Night of the Creeps, though it isn’t free of that chuck-anything-vile-at-the-screen approach that makes Troma films less fun when you watch them than they seem from the posters.” The Kim Newman Web Site
“If you require sense and explanations in your fright fare, this one is probably not for you, but if you are in the mood for mayhem, gallons of gore and mouth-to-mouth regurgitation, and little to no back story about whatever it is that is endangering our hard rocking heroines, Pussycake delivers the goods in spades.” 3.5 out of 5, The Scariest Things
“PussyCake is pure, uncut midnighter fodder. It is absolutely frantic, manic, nonsensical and off the wall […] At seventy-five minutes it all happens at breakneck speed and will likely leave you with more questions than answers, even a bit of whiplash, but it is a hell of a ride.” Screen Anarchy
” …doesn’t get preachy or heavy-handed […] It’s quite happy being a kickass splatter film first and foremost. And for the most part, PussyCake succeeds. It’s a stylish, high-energy film that will make you laugh, make you jump and make you go “Ewww”, frequently at the same time.” 4 out of 5, Voices from the Balcony
