Although praising Keating's ability to avoid retreading previous films, Brad Miska of Bloody Disgusting criticized the lack of characterization and called Psychopaths "a beautiful work of art that's void of any real meaning". Miska highlighted Trimbur's character and said she should have been the focus of the film. Michael Gingold of Rue Morgue described the film as a homage to Keating's directorial influences. Commenting on the acting, Gingold wrote, "More than just a technical exercise, Psychopaths is also a showcase for several different styles of unhinged acting, which is what truly holds the attention." Gingold concluded with the hope that Bell and Keating will continue collaborating. == References ==
