Studio 666 has received mixed reviews from critics and audiences, who praised the film's gore and humor, but criticized its plot, acting, and tone. The film currently holds a 55% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes, based on 127 reviews, with an average rating of 5.5/10. The website's critics consensus reads: "Studio 666 doesn't quite take its horror-comedy hybrid to 11, but if you're in the mood, this cheerfully over-the-top outing is a lot of fun." The film also has an 80% audience score on the same site, based on over 250 verified ratings.

Some critics praised the film's self-awareness and homage to classic horror films, as well as the Foo Fighters' willingness to poke fun at themselves and their genre. Peter Bradshaw of The Guardian gave the film 3 out of 5 stars, writing: "Loud, gory, sometimes silly, sometimes scary, and nearly always constant fun, Studio 666 is committed to old-school horror tropes with a hearty side of rock and roll." Helen O'Hara of Empire Magazine also gave the film 3 out of 5 stars, calling it "amiably silly and impressively gory" and noting that it "lives up to both its low-budget inspirations and its rocker stars."

However, some critics found the film to be unfunny, unoriginal, and poorly executed. Tim Cogshell of FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles) said: "Foo Fighters: great band, terrible actors." Sara Michelle Fetters of MovieFreak.com gave the film 2 out of 4 stars, stating: "Thereâs nothing substantive about the film, not a single element that lasts beyond the moment it happens." Dev Shea of Nightmarish Conjurings gave the film a negative review, writing: "When it all comes down to it, Studio 666 is a fun little romp around the demons in the music industry, both literal and metaphorical. However, it doesnât do anything new or exciting with its premise or its characters."

The film also features interviews with the Foo Fighters and other cast and crew members, who share their experiences and insights on making the film. In an interview with Rolling Stone, Dave Grohl said that he came up with the idea for the film after watching a documentary about the Beatles' Let It Be sessions, and wondered what it would be like if they had been haunted by a ghost. He also said that he wanted to make a film that was fun and entertaining, and not take itself too seriously.

Jeff Buhler and Rebecca Hughes, the screenwriters of the film, told Script Magazine that they had a blast working with Grohl and the band, and that they tried to capture their personalities and humor in the script. They also said that they drew inspiration from classic horror films like The Shining, The Exorcist, and Evil Dead, as well as comedy films like This Is Spinal Tap, Wayne's World, and Airplane. They said that they wanted to heighten the reality of the film and make it more absurd and outrageous, while still keeping it grounded in the music industry.

BJ McDonnell, the director of the film, said in an interview with YouTube that he was a fan of Foo Fighters and horror films, and that he was thrilled to work on this project. He said that he wanted to make a film that was scary, funny, and gory, and that he had a lot of creative freedom to do so. He also praised the performance of Grohl and the band, saying that they were natural actors and comedians, and that they had a lot of chemistry on screen. He said that he hoped that the film would appeal to both fans of Foo Fighters and horror films.
