"Omituinen sekoitus art housea ja b-elokuvaa, hellyyttävää vilpittömyyttä ja puistattavaa teeskentelyä. Kourallinen sivuosavakionaamoja sekoilee Euroopasta tyyliin jonnekin Kalliovuorille rahdatussa linnassa toimivassa sotilasmielisairaalassa. Camp-miljöö sekä akuankkamainen käsitys hulluudesta - hassut hatut ja eksentriset läpät - korostavat Ninth Configurationin kummallista, keinotekoista tunnelmaa. Lopussa hypätään Cannon Groupillekin liian juustoisesta baaritappelusta hartaasee"

"26.1. Keskittyminen tähän oli jotenkin supervaikeaa, mutta pidin kuitenkin Blattyn luomasta tunnelmasta. Siinä oli paljon hölmöilyä, vaikka aiheet olivatkin vakavia. Ajoittain kohtaukset ampuivat kunnolla yli ja mielisairaalan kolkko miljöö miellytti silmääni. Myös surrealistilla kuvilla leikiteltiin aina silloin tällöin ja unenomainen tunnelma antaa viitteitä Vietnam-sukupolven pahoinvoinnista.
