Critics consensus

“An uninspired departure for Wes Craven, mired by an uneven premise; beware, this is one Deadly Friend .”

Deadly Friend is a droll inversion of the typical teen slice-and-dice formula.

More cute than creepy. Despite a nice B-movie premise, the film quickly goes limp.

RTNew York Daily NewsDec 9, 2022

It's boring, unsuspenseful and predictable.

There are two movies inside this movie and I have fun with both of them. However, I completely understand why this isn't one of the more well known Wes Craven films.
