Reception
The film has received mixed reviews, holding a 40% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on 10 reviews with an average score of 5.4/10. Alex Saveliev of Film Threat said the film "is not devoid of merit, but neither is it good enough to recommend". Russ Simmons of KKFI opined that "it's goofy midnight movie fodder that never quite delivers the laughs it had hoped for".
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".
