When I stumbled upon the 2022 movie "All Jacked Up and Full of Worms" by random chance here in 2024, I was immediately drawn in by its odd cover. And with it being a movie that I had neither heard about before and much less even watched, of course I opted to sit down and watch what writer and director Alex Phillips had to offer.
The storyline in the movie was bizarre. So very, very weird. I wonder if the script for this movie was written while the writer was spacing out on something. I have watched my fair share of odd movies, no doubt about that, but "All Jacked Up and Full of Worms" definitely is a contender for the top three of bizarre movies that I have sat through, well partially sat through.
Suffice it to say that I wasn't familiar wit the actors and actresses on the cast list in the movie. But it should be said that the acting performances were good, despite the fact that the script was so far out there.
"All Jacked Up and Full of Worms" is definitely not a movie that will find an appeal with a wider audience, as it is very much something of an acquired taste to sit through.
Some of the scenes throughout the course of the movie were every bit as bizarre and strange as the contents of the storyline, so that seemed to go hand-in-hand. And some of the music in the movie was definitely also strange enough to compliment the bizarre storyline.
This movie was simply beyond the scope of what I find to be adequate entertainment, and I have to admit that I gave up on watching it 38 minutes into the ordeal. The movie just didn't make sense and I found little entertainment value in the strange contents that writer and director Alex Phillips had put together. And believe you me, when I say that I am not returning to attempt finish watching "All Jacked Up and Full of Worms". But I am sure that there is an audience out there, space out enough to find entertainment value in this movie.
My rating of "All Jacked Up and Full of Worms" lands on a very generous three out of ten stars.
