The popular website HorrorBid said of the film: “[A] few brutal minutes and some bloody fingernails later, we are reminded that we are vulnerable in this world and we could be snapped away in an instant. All this from a washing machine. Yeah, I didn't think it could be done either...This was a blast to watch.”

Bloomquist has been writing and revising FOUNDERS DAY since April 2011. The past two years have been spent strengthening the plot and characters in order to make a film that is compelling and exciting to members of all demographics and to tell a fully satisfying story.
