All Jacked Up and Full of Worms is a 2022 American horror film directed by Alex Phillips, starring Trevor Dawkins, Phillip Andre Botello, and Betsey Brown.
The film originated as a 20-page play that Phillips wrote in 2016 while working as a PA on other film sets.[1] When discussing the thematic inspiration for the film, Phillips said: "To put it simply, I wanted to talk about a yearning for normalcy and a 'regular life,' but also feeling totally broken and too fucked up to deserve that sort of thing."[1]
Mary Beth McAndrews of Dread Central rated the film 3.5 stars out of 5, writing "Transgressive, upsetting, and disturbing, ‘All Jacked Up And Full Of Worms’ is a slippery nightmare that tries a little too hard to be disgusting."[6] The film received positive reviews in ScreenAnarchy and RogerEbert.com.[7][8]
Simon Rother of HorrorNews.net was more critical of the film, giving it a score of 4/10.[9]
