Reception
In a negative 1-star rating, Manuel J. Lombardo of Diario de Sevilla judged that it is "best to avoid" the film, "if only out of respect for truly trashy horror films".[3]
Raquel Hernández Luján of HobbyConsolas gave the film a 30-point score, lamenting that the film is not up to its cast, otherwise negatively assessing moments of unintended comedy, how it fails at "creating any sense of fear" and "makes such clumsy use of cinematic language".[8]
Quim Casas of El Periódico de Catalunya gave the film 2 stars, writing that the story "has too many ups and downs and repetitions" and that, "never quite plunging into madness", "its plot twists are predictable".[9]
Carmen L. Lobo of La Razón gave Under Your Feet a 3-star rating, highlighting the "great" Maribel Verdú as its best thing, while noting that it is a "quite uneven" film and its ending is "very rushed".[10]
