Critical reception

Curse of the Talisman received mixed reviews generally unfavorable from critics. Clayton Trapp of Brilliant Observations on 1173 Films gave Curse of the Talisman one stars and said, "Film gets on a formulaic track early and refuses to get off, which partly works for it. It's the least scary monster movie I've ever seen but it's satisfied to be there, they just want to stay on formula and entertain us the way that others have entertained them. No pretensions, no special effects addiction, no sex and gore over-the-topness, no bullshit." Video Picks for Perverts simply said, "There's no tits, either. Fucking worthless."
