			* Jack Sommersby at EFilmCritic dot Com ([http://www.efilmcritic.com/review.php?movie=5790&reviewer=327 link]) - "...''Transylvania Twist'' ambles along amiably enough, and there’s almost always something to enjoyably respond to. It’s may be nothing more than a harmless time killer, but at least it succeeds in putting a smile on your face more often than not.
			* Felix Vasquez at Crazed Cinema ([http://cinema-crazed.com/blog/2011/02/13/transylvania-twist-1989/ link]) - "...''Transylvania Twist'' still a fun time to be had, especially by folks tired of the modern attempts at humor that just don’t even try."

===Tentacle Ratings===
A rough [[Tentacle Ratings|measure]] of how "Lovecraftian" the work is:
* s____ (One Half Tentacle: Name-dropping Only)

The film is "Lovecraftian" only in that it affectionately name-drops some of Lovecraft's creations as "shout-outs".

''Note: This rating is not intended as a measure of quality, merely of how closely related to Lovecraftian "Weird" fiction the work is.''
