All Jacked Up and Full of Worms Reviews
All Jacked Up and Full of Worms has proper amounts of enjoyable sleaze but ends up being too restrained and foolish to achieve cult status.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Jan 4, 2024
Thankfully, it’s over quickly at a brisk 72 minutes, so it isn’t too hard to power through.
| Original Score: 5/10 | Nov 30, 2022
Perhaps the film’s main issue for this viewer is that it never quite opts for the big, bold ick factor or a weightier/funnier character study, but rather meanders between these points.

Formal flourishes make clear that there is a method to All Jacked Up and Full of Worms’ madness, but it gets somewhat lost in translation.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Nov 11, 2022
I was sometimes jostled, sometimes amused, sometimes drained by this dirty story that tends to get a little too cute, especially when it goes for broad comedy beats.

All Jacked Up and Full of Worms is a work of gutter psychedelia, and should ideally be watched after midnight on a cruddy VHS on your staticky basement 온라인카지노추천.

The plot amounts to little more than a drug fueled night gone wrong. The humor will not be for everyone – it ranges from dark to goofy – and things can get incredibly dark. But there is a creativity and charm that makes this worth a watch.

I fell in love with the vibe of the piece, while not being completely pulled in by the attempts to shock and disgust. If the characters had been eating bugs, then maybe we could talk.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Nov 8, 2022
All Jacked Up and Full of Worms pretty much peaks with its title.
| Original Score: C-plus | Nov 8, 2022
All Jacked Up and Full of Worms nestles itself comfortably within the long history of drugs on screen, but does so with its own personality and flair. Also, the drugs are worms.
| Original Score: 7.5/10 | Nov 7, 2022
Phillips uses his camera and style to sell the psychedelic sequences. These grotesque and shocking experiences rock you to your core.
| Original Score: 6/10 | Nov 7, 2022
The type of demented cinema that caters to a rather specific taste, but there’s something about it that I think could appeal to an audience not actively seeking out something so deeply deranged.

It’s a film that could have been much more with a modicum of restraint.
| Original Score: 5/10 | Nov 4, 2022
It's as if Phillips couldn't decide on whether the film should an abstract art piece or surreal social commentary.

[It] is genuinely transgressive in its Hubert Selby Jr.-meets-old-school-Harmony Korine portrait of weirdos and fuck-ups in a society where psychedelic worms are plentiful and absolutes are not so much so.

For adventurous viewers, Alex Phillips’ debut feature is the purest hit of endorphins you’ll find this side of munching on some earthworms.

I don't doubt that All Jacked Up and Full of Worms is trying to do something, and I suspect it might have hit on some useful approaches to the material...yet it's a party where a lot of people are having fun, and I wonder what I'm doing there.
| Original Score: 1/4 | Oct 25, 2022
Phillips’ All Jacked Up and Full of Worms is not meant to give the audience any pleasure. Instead, it was developed to cause repulsion, disgust, and even anger. After watching Phillips’ directorial debut, we can say the filmmaker succeeded.
| Original Score: C+ | Oct 12, 2022
Boasting one of the greatest titles in all of genre cinema, I truly wanted to love this gross-out, demented, sleazy horror trip for the deranged. I did not enjoy this psychedelic journey for degenerates, but at least it’ll have audiences talking.
