LOCKJAW (2025) Slamdance 2025

 


Six weeks after Rayna over did at a party and crashed her car so badly her mouth had to wired shut, she and her new boyfriend go out with friends but as the not progresses and they shift parties things go more and more worse.

Comedy of discomfort is often very funny, but suffers in that Rayna is a bit much to handle. While normally we watch to see the person get her come uppance, here she starts off getting paid back and then it gets kind of worse. This is not so much a worm turning film but rather something closer to real which makes it uncomfortable at times. 

How you react to the film will depend on how you react to Rayna and her friends. I was not full invested in them, but I can see how this will connect with a lot of people.

Worth a look.
