Reception
A contemporary review published in Variety called the film an "amateurish effort", and noted that its "plot, thesping, sets and camerawork have to struggle to come up to adequate level; mostly they hover below the line."[1] Lee Pfeiffer of Cinema Retro wrote that it is "hard to recommend Flesh and Bullets as mainstream entertainment but, as a retro curiosity of a director's bold but failed attempt to break into the mainstream, it is certainly worth a look."[2]
Home media
In 2015, the film was restored in 2K and released on DVD by Vinegar Syndrome.[2][3]
