Like so many filmmakers before him, Levasseur doesn't seem to grasp that in the horror genre, less can be more.

Martin Tsai, Los Angeles Times

If you're looking for cheap scares and have 90 minutes to kill, you could do worse than The Pyramid. But not a lot worse.

Chris Nashawaty, Entertainment Weekly
Rotten

The air inside the pyramid isn't the only thing that's stale in this ludicrous yet mildly likable horror film.

Michael O'Sullivan, Washington Post
Rotten

A stinker in every sense.

Leslie Felperin, Hollywood Reporter
Rotten

"The Pyramid," despite an unpretentious matinee vibe, is mostly interesting in seeing how little light can be on screen before a bare minimum of suspense and coherence dissipates. There is, truly, not much to see in this movie.

Ben Kenigsberg, New York Times
