[Trailer] ‘All Jacked Up and Full of Worms’ Review Calls the Indie “a Lo-Fi Gross-Out For Weirdos”

Worms… it’ll get you fucked up!

It was announced ahead of the World Premiere at the ongoing Fantasia Film Festival that Cinedigm acquired Alex Phillips’s avant-gutter psychedelic freakout All Jacked Up and Full of Worms, which will join the Bloody Disgusting-powered horror streaming service SCREAMBOX this fall, followed by an exclusive window on Cinedigm’s indie discovery platform Fandor.

Reviews are just starting to trickle in with Screen Anarchy calling All Jacked Up and Full of Worms “a lo-fi gross-out for weirdos,” further adding, “With influences ranging from Cronenbergian body horror to John Waters-esque reveling in bad taste, to more contemporary waking nightmare fuel like Calvin Lee Reeder’s The Oregonian or The Rambler, All Jacked Up and Full of Worms is really going to hit the spot for a small segment of demented viewers and really repel others.”

Killer Horror Critic says the film will get you high on repulsive sleaze. “Sleaze radiates off the lo-fi imagery like a noxious green cloud so thick you can practically smell it,” they write. “I’d be lying if I said All Jacked Up and Full of Worms isn’t an unforgettable piece of underground cinema that wriggles around in your brain long after it’s over. Maybe forever.”

In addition, we now have a look at the film’s first trailer for the film described as “a flamboyant, darkly outrageous new vision that mashes together retro grindhouse thrills with the squirmy depths of underground cinema.”

In the film…

“Working at a seedy motel, maintenance man Roscoe (Phillip Andre Botello) is always searching for his latest fix. When he stumbles upon a powerfully hallucinogenic worm, his days of dime-store drugs are over. Along with his new love interest (Dawkins), the pair embark on a delirious odyssey of sex, violence, and becoming one with the dirt.”

The transgressive splatter comedy also stars Trevor Dawkins (“Easy”) and Betsey Brown (The Scary of Sixty-First), with Mike Lopez, Noah Lepawsky and Eva Fellows. The film was produced by Georgia Bernstein and Ben Gojer.
