Moviegoers are saying
This neon-soaked alien invasion splatter fest divides audiences between those who embrace its sweaty DIY energy and tactile practical effects, and those exhausted by its self-indulgent cult movie chasing. Shot in director Begos' own apartment with friends, it's either a lovingly crafted labor of love with genuine heart beneath the alien intestines, or an overstretched premise that peaks too early and never recovers.

When I walked into the AMC theater in Times Square some guy pointed at me and said “I THINK THAT GUY IS IN THE MOVIE!” Needless to say it was a great time. (I’m not in the movie.)
BenDavid GrabinskiMar 24, 2025Hand-made neon splatter gonzo filmmaking is Begos at his most playful and personal. A true indie labor of love and the strained friendship at the center of the film has a real heart that helps balance all the alien intestines.

pd187Jul 7, 2025An alien abduction, home invasion, splatter fest on hard drugs. I’ve never seen anything like it, and I love it for that. It’s soaked in neon colors and black lights. The practical effects are incredibly impressive. It’s like going through an alien-themed haunted house on…
Jeff RauseoDec 27, 2025Look, I like neon colored gel (black)lighting, scratchy 16mm, practical gore, and grey alien puppets as much as the next guy, and I really wanted to give this some DIY charm points for clearly being shot in his own apartment with his friends. But I can't help that I've…

as lovingly tactile as it is irrefutably gross, which is the highest compliment I can pay a DIY genre film in 2025
Justin LaLibertyOct 22, 2025100 Days Of Halloween #114: Jimmy and Stiggs I went into Jimmy and Stiggs expecting a neon soaked splatter fest with incredibly low budget, DIY practical effects and man does it deliver on that in spades. What I did not expect was the hard hitting (if a bit on the nose)…

This is a really weird film, but I enjoyed it. It is very bloody yet not bloody at all. The movie is only 80 minutes, but it did feel like it dragged on a little too long at times. My favorite part of this movie are the two fake trailers at the beginning. I was cracking up and would absolutely…
AJ Zeppenfeld likedJimmy and StiggsStay for the short xtra feature after the credits and you'll really appreciate how much went into this low budget indy film. I had a blast!
