William Brown (Jonah Ray Rodrigues), a neurotic, self-absorbed musician determined to finish his prog-rock magnum opus, faces a creative roadblock in the form of a noisy and grotesque neighbor named Vlad (Alex Winter). Finally working up the nerve to demand that Vlad keep it down, William inadvertently decapitates him. But, while attempting to cover up one murder, William's accidental reign of terror causes victims to pile up and become undead corpses who torment and create more bloody detours on his road to prog-rock Valhalla. DESTROY ALL NEIGHBORS is a twisted splatter-comedy about a deranged journey of self-discovery full of goopy practical FX, a well-known ensemble cast, and LOTS of blood.

Critics Consensus

While it struggles with pacing and an indulgently chaotic narrative, Destroy All Neighbors charms with inventive special effects and infectious cast chemistry.

Kim Newman

Empire Magazine

The only film you’ll see this year with a limbless torso playing drums with animated entrails, this wickedly witty take on the seamy side of creative ambition is well worth a spin.

Rated: 3/5

Bloody Disgusting

Those on its wavelength won’t mind the rough edges or underdeveloped themes in this raucous comedy filled with enough moments and character beats to compensate. But the flaws will only become more evident if this type of humor isn’t for you.

Rated: 2.5/5

Much like wannabe prog-rock musician William Brown’s (Jonah Ray Rodrigues) music, not everyone is going to “get” the juvenile horror-comedy Destroy All Neighbors, but those who do are going to adore the ever-loving heck out of it.

Rated: 2.5/4

Destroy All Neighbors contains a little bit of everything, which doesn’t make it perfect, but it does make it special.

Rated: 3/5

Overall this is a great splatter-horror-comedy trip which I highly recommend watching. To quote the film “not everyone will get it, but the right ones will” and that is the perfect way to summarise Destroy all Neighbors.

Rated: 3.5

I give it a B- for its campy nature! And look for all the cameos and friends that make appearances.

ive tried to watch this multiple times. it's just not well made, has the aura of an improv project. the prosthetics used are pointlessly garish and i would have enjoyed watching a lot more if i wasnt staring at a very cheap rubber mask for half the movie. im a fan of several cast members, but this movie is very bad. from looking at his filmography, the director doesnt seem to have many scruples.

Ha, what a goofy, macabre movie. Certainly didn't live up to my expectations, but only because I couldn't predict what the hell was going to happen next. Worth checking out if you enjoy a light hearted movie with some gore!

This movie was not for me. It struggles with its characters and story. The special effects I thought would be good, but they were not. The twist at the end of the movie was something you were waiting for since the whole premise. I do not recommend this movie

I went into "Destroy All Neighbors" eager a Shudder soon to be hidden gem horror on the level of "Onyx The Fortuitous And The Talisman Of Soul" or "Studio 666". The premise – a struggling musician and his homicidal neighbor – held the promise of dark comedic genius. But by the 20-minute mark, I felt like I was being force-fed lukewarm gruel with a rusty spoon. The attempt at surreal humor felt like a fever dream dreamt by someone who'd never actually had a fever dream and the special effects, the supposed saving grace of low-budget horror comedies, were equally uninspired. 30 minutes in, I could no longer subject myself to abusing myself by continuing to watch this train wreck of a film.
