"The Liberation of Evil isn't a spectacular film. However, it does feature some solid performances and the story finishes strong with a well-directed and bloody finale. Horror fans won't complain, that's for sure." - Cal Crowe, Washington Globe
"The film is clearly influenced by other films, but it does give some fresh material. Amanda Seyfried gives a solid performance that lifts and carries an otherwise throwaway horror movie. Not dissing it, but rather I'm already starting to forget it while I'm writing about it." - Frankie Monet, USA Today
"There might be a couple too many superfluous characters and moments, but the overall plot works and the film is anchored by a strong leading performance from Amanda Seyfried. Director David Bruckner manages to wring some decent scares out of the story as well." - Matt Carson, Arizona Republic
