Get ready to lose your mind, because Jimmy and Stiggs invades Digital this Wednesday, October 1, on Prime Video, Apple TV+, and Fandango at Home.
The drug-fueled, neon-soaked alien invasion splatterfest is written and directed by Joe Begos (VFW, Christmas Bloody Christmas), who shot the film in his apartment during the pandemic.
A perfect storm of lousy news sees out-of-work filmmaker Jimmy spiral into a bender, during which he claims to have been abducted by aliens. Fearing their return, he contacts his old friend Stiggs to help him gear up for war.
Begos stars alongside Matt Mercer (Contracted), practical alien puppets, and a whole lot of gore captured on 16mm film.
Daniel Kurland wrote in his review, “The world needs more playful, gonzo small-scale-yet-apocalyptic horror films like Jimmy and Stiggs. It’s a movie that has constant tricks on display and perpetually sprays blood in the audience’s face, but there’s an earnest, vulnerable center to it all.”
Jimmy and Stiggs is the inaugural release from Eli Roth‘s The Horror Section, to be followed by Dream Eater on October 24 and Ice Cream Man in 2026.
