There’s a lot to love about this festive bloodbath despite it being surrounded by many elements that don’t work.

Mackay is a talented and prolific filmmaker (take a look at her filmography to see how much work she puts out at a clip), but the level of filmmaking craft rises way above the material here.

Alice Maio Mackay may have reached the tipping point where her films can find that boarder audience without sacrificing the edge that makes them unique, and Carnage for Christmas is evidence that she’s just going to keep getting better.

This deserves a spot on your holiday watches. Alice Maio Mackay makes the kind of movies I love to see. 5 years gets added to my life expectancy every time she assembles a squad to stomp out the patriarchy.

Rated: 4/5
