Rating: 2/4 --
With its gore-comix sensibility and self-conscious flashes of nudity, Trapped Ashes clunks along, and (to be completely petty) never really overcomes its clunky title.
Chicago Tribune
Rating: 1.5/4 --
Dennis Bartok writes this lackluster anthology of four juvenile horror stories dripping with sexual dread and goofball gore.

Chicago Sun-Times
Only fitfully entertaining.
Hollywood Reporter
Pairing cult directors with macabre omnibus material is always a tasty proposition, but the results disappoint in Trapped Ashes, a quartet of mildly sexed-up, unscary horror tales with a unifying wraparound story.
Variety
Any film that let's Ken Russell direct an episode about killer breasts deserves some kind of credit, almost regardless of the results.

A horrible mess of horror movie cliches...

Film Scouts
It's great to see the return of Hellman, even if this film's pathetic theatrical release and dismal reception make it unlikely we'll see much more of him anytime soon.

Product Description:
When several strangers get trapped on an infamous horror movie set while touring a Hollywood studio, they must tell their scariest stories as if their lives depended on it. Genre fans should already smell an anthology, and they are on the right track if images of CREEPSHOW, TALES FROM THE CRYPT, or the MASTERS OF HORROR and FEAR ITSELF series are creeping into mind. The tales found here are directed by some of the biggest names in horror, cult, and special effects, including Sean S. Cunningham (FRIDAY THE 13TH), Ken Russell (ALTERED STATES, TOMMY), Monte Hellman (TWO-LANE BLACKTOP), and some of the visual effects artists from THE MATRIX and TERMINATOR 2. Off-kilter genre director Joe Dante (GREMLINS, THE HOWLING, MATINEE) takes wrap-around story duties in this fresh take on anthology horror.
