Quite possibly the coolest concept for a horror movie to come out in years, Redux Redux wastes nothing in telling a tale of grief, revenge, and connection across the multiverse. An absolute gem of indie filmmaking with excellent performances and world building.

REDUX REDUX: Holy hell I’ve closed out #SXSW w/ an absolute banger. I don’t even want to spoil anything about it but mom getting revenge on the serial killer who took her daughter over & over again. Brutal, smart, efficient, evocative score, great cast/characters. Adored this McManus Brothers joint.

6. REDUX REDUX: A favorite of SXSW. Given that, probably goes without saying, I was VERY excited to sit down with Kevin McManus, Matthew McManus & Michaela McManus. Could have listened to them talk about developing this idea, and being the most supportive filmmaking family and real family for hours.

Poster for Redux Redux. The title is presented in a bold tan font with the first word reading normally and the second word mirroring it. Mountains are in the background of a woman setting fire to a man tied to a chair. The man is lying on the desert ground as the flames overtake him.

World Premiere

Concept alone sold me on this & the execution absolutely lives up to it.
A spell-binding, grounded sci-fi horror film that is as action-packed as it is affecting. Strong characters, performances, & worldbuilding help bring the tale of grief & revenge to life.

Hell yeah! Thanks for spreading the word!

Starting my #SXSW coverage with Redux Redux (2025), written & directed by Matthew + Kevin McManus. Multiverse horror is usually a yellow flag for me, but the brothers lean into character development and solid writing to make this one worth the watch.
