An article on Turner Classic Movies written in 2006 calls ''Goké, Body Snatcher from Hell'' a "masterpiece" of 1960s sci-fi that has won a [[Cult film|cult following]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.tcm.com/tcmdb/title/490320/goke-body-snatcher-from-hell#articles-reviews?articleId=145445|title = Goke, Body Snatcher from Hell}}</ref>
In a contemporary review, the ''[[Monthly Film Bulletin]]'' reviewed an 83-minute English-dubbed version of the film.<ref name="mfb">{{cite magazine|magazine=[[Monthly Film Bulletin]]|title=Kyuketsuki Gokemidoro (Goke - Body Snatcher from Hell)|page=216|volume=36|issue=420|year=1969|publisher=[[British Film Institute]]|location=London}}</ref> The review described the film as an "Uninspired mélange of flying saucers and vampirism" that was "woodenly directed and bogged down by long stretches of melodramatic dissension among the characters which acts as an uneasy springboard for much preaching and moralizing about why mankind deserves to be taken over by invaders from another world."<ref name="mfb" />
