Reception

The film has received mixed reviews, holding a 40% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on ten reviews with an average score of 5.43/10.[6] Alex Saveliev of Film Threat said the film "is not devoid of merit, but neither is it good enough to recommend".[7] Russ Simmons of KKFI opined that "it's goofy midnight movie fodder that never quite delivers the laughs it had hoped for".[8]

On the other hand, Amanda Mazzillo of Film Inquiry gave a positive review, concluding that the "very aspect of Useless Humans aims to affectionately recall films of the past while maintaining a perfectly modern tone with its comedy, twists, and characters".[9]
