Jimmy and Stiggs
A shitstorm of bad news sends out-of-work filmmaker Jimmy Lang spiraling into an out-of-control bender, during which he claims to have been abducted by aliens. Fearing they’ll come back, he contacts his old friend Stiggs to help him gear up for war.
Why it matters
A chaotic dive into paranoia and delusion that blends dark comedy with sci-fi horror’s classic alien abduction paranoia.
- A raw, unfiltered character study anchored by a committed lead performance navigating grief and conspiracy.
- Practical effects and unsettling alien designs channel ’70s and ’80s sci-fi horror aesthetics with a modern indie twist.
- Fans of body horror and psychological breakdowns will appreciate the film’s messy, visceral approach to trauma.
- Not for those seeking polished narratives — it’s a scrappy, sometimes uneven bender that rewards patience with moments of eerie dread.
