Ken Tucker Entertainment Weekly 07/11/2018
B-
With funny villains, agreeably bad special effects, and Durock's eerily unsettling makeup, it's easy to see why Swamp Thing has already attracted a solid cult audience. Go to Full Review William Thomas Empire Magazine 07/11/2018
1/5
Utterly devoid of any camp merriment that might have salvaged this dim, no-budget series from scaling new heights in tedium. Go to Full Review James O'Ehley Sci-Fi Movie Page 07/11/2018
1.5/4
Dreadfully dull television. Go to Full Review Ian Pugh Film Freak Central 07/11/2018
There's a surprising earnestness to the whole affair, a steady, self-assured hand that successfully prevents you from condescending to it... A work of such dedicated madness that it approaches beauty. Go to Full Review The Foywonder Dread Central 07/11/2018
2/5
This isn't merely a case of a series trying to find its footing. It's quite apparent that the people making this show didn't seem to know what the hell they were doing in the beginning. Go to Full Review Eric Goldman IGN Movies 07/11/2018
A bit hard to take seriously when viewed now, filled with hammy acting and cliche plotlines, along with some truly bizarre moments. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
