Hilarious, terrifying, and mournful, Anything for Jackson is a horror-comedy that gets both parts of the equation perfectly right.

It's rare to find this kind of tonal mastery in a film in which so much crazy shit happens, and the tiny swirl of deadpan humor is perfect for leavening such an ultimately unsettling story.

Continuously manages to remain just as entertainingly unpredictable as it goes on, even as it stays in its singular location of the Walsh house.
| Original Score: 3 / 5 | Jun 26, 2021
A tongue-in-cheek, fun, sick and twisted psychological horror film anchored by its two two actors. Delivers on the creepiness and scares; lots of humor slathered with supernatural Satanism. (Blu-ray review).
| Original Score: 3/4 | Jun 11, 2021
No one here is winking or playing down to the material; instead, the filmmakers understand that villains are more interesting when their motivations are relatable.

... has some amazing performances that are clearly shown in proper lighting and cinematography, which brings everything to the forefront and allows the film to go for "it".

Anything for Jackson's middle act isn't as strong as the sections that bookend it, but this is still a delightfully dark and well-crafted satanic shocker.
