Eastman Trumayne Bolden as Vance Eastman Jennifer Snow as Mindy Dawn Shindle as Wendy Blu Fox as Messenger Reception Dread Central's Mike Phalin gave the film a 1½ out of 5, and wrote, "The Mailman just never gets to any sort of peak or level that draws in the viewer" and "With so much potential to be a deep thriller about family ties and morals, it is hard to believe The Mailman ends up being just another one of those cheap films that goes nowhere and does nothing". A 2/5 was awarded by Richard Scheib of Moria, who noted that while The Mailman was bogged down by its low-budget, sub-par cinematography, and melodramatic direction, it was still "a wonderfully sordid little film" with memorable performances by Bryan W. Lukasik, Ari Tinnen, and Rob Arbogast. See also The Paperboy, a similar film from 1994.
