REVIEWS:
“Awakening uses its 92-minute runtime to great effect. Detractors of the first film picked up on the majority of Jack’s 6 kill limit taking place too early in the runtime. Here the kills are more spaced out giving the storyline a bit more time to breathe. An added benefit at the core of Awakening is the creepy Oedipal relationship between Edgar and Olga.” www.getyourcomicon.co.uk/

“The Jack in the Box: Awakening is an enjoyable film to watch. It doesn’t really bring anything new to the party, but it’s well made and the acting is passable. Although obviously low budget, the monster effects are impressive and the clown is suitably scary.” www.road-rash.co.uk

“…it’s well-paced, mixing the kills through the film to avoid long dull stretches. And we get some backstory on the demon itself and the human host it inhabits. But the mechanics of the film are much the same as in the first film, only with the creature creeping around an estate instead of a museum […] an enjoyable, and slightly above average creature feature.” www.voicesfromthebalcony.com
