Review - Slapface (2022)

Directed by: Jeremiah Kipp

Starring: August Maturo, Mike Manning, Libe Barer

Go Horror Rating: C

I liked it, but that's as far as I can go. The bullying aspect and the presentation of a fractured relationship between brothers is great, but there are too many dull moments that keep this film from standing out. Anna (Libe Barer) did a great job at invoking a feeling of bleakness, and Lucas (August Maturo) as a lonely, conflicted kid, also had a pretty awesome performance. You feel the pain and trauma in this movie, it just doesn't provide a lasting impression.
