Howard Gorman of Dread Central rated the film 4 stars out of 5 and wrote: "The real secret to the film’s success lies in the versatile performances – pretty much across the board – and the fascinating and inextricable relationship the two leads share – rife with tangible emotions – that gives the film that extra level of sensuality and sexuality."{{cite web |url= https://www.dreadcentral.com/reviews/145138/hexecutioners-the-2015/|title= Hexecutioners, The (2015)|last= Gorman|first= Howard|date= 14 January 2016|website= Dread Central|publisher= |access-date= 29 December 2024|quote=}} Andrew Mack of ScreenAnarchy called the film "matured and controlled" and opined that it "displays a departure from Cook's prior films and one that plays against the expectations that one may have about Burgess' screenplays." Mack wrote that it "drips and oozes with so much atmosphere that it could sustain a whole planet."{{cite web |url= https://screenanarchy.com/2015/10/toronto-after-dark-2015-review-the-hexecutioners-welcome-to-the-job-from-hell.html|title= Toronto After Dark 2015 Review: THE HEXECUTIONERS, Welcome To The Job From Hell|last= Mack|first= Andrew|date= 21 October 2015|website= ScreenAnarchy|publisher= |access-date= 29 December 2024|quote=}}

Jon Dickinson of Scream rated the film 2 stars out of 5 and wrote while Cook "has a great eye for detail which is perfectly complemented by Karl Janisse’s cinematography" and the film is "technically sound", he "didn’t find The Hexecutioners particularly scary" and stated that it "lacks its punches"{{cite web |url= https://www.screamhorrormag.com/the-hexecutioners-film-review/|title= THE HEXECUTIONERS|last= Dickinson|first= Jon|date= 17 January 2016|website= Scream|publisher= |access-date= 29 December 2024|quote=}} Laura D. Girolamo of Exclaim! gave the film a score of 5/10 and stated that the film "squanders an excellent idea, and a great opportunity to tell a story about death and loss", and that "While ambiance is its strong suit, with a particular scene near the film's end a gorgeous blend of red, black and white, it's not creepy enough to sustain an entire 97 minutes." However, she praised the "complicated female leads with definitive emotions and unique personalities".{{cite web |url= https://exclaim.ca/film/article/hexecutioners-jesse_thomas_cook|title= The Hexecutioners|last= Girolamo|first= Laura D.|date= 22 October 2015|website= Exclaim!|publisher= |access-date= 29 December 2024|quote=}}
