“CHILLING! A powerful investigation centering on interviews with an unnervingly candid group of convicted murderers of homosexuals.”
–Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times
 

“Essential and riveting – close to being the In Cold Blood of documentaries. Like Capote, Dong is clear-eyed to the nth degree, and the matter-of-factness of his presentation only increases KILL's knockout power."

–Stephan Talty, Time Out New York
 
–Boston Globe
–Seattle Times
–Salt Lake Tribune
 
–New York Daily News
