It’s a movie that could be forgiven with the right ending. Unfortunately, Screwdriver falls into the Tommy Wiseau category. Go to Full Review Kat Hughes THN 01/16/2024
3/5
With a perplexing psychological mystery that Hitchcock himself would be proud of, Screwdriver is an intriguing thriller with plenty of layers to unravel. Go to Full Review Sarah Vincent Cambridge Day 11/20/2023
2/4
Director and writer Cairo Smith works well with a four-member cast and intentionally confines the action to the home so viewers will relate to Emily’s situation, which feels like an unofficial prequel to “The Handmaid’s Tale.” Go to Full Review Keri O'Shea Warped Perspective 11/08/2023
Screwdriver has decent production values, an attractive set and a lead performance which does all it can with the script, but ultimately the film needed to be and to do so much more. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Jim H @RT82990987 02/06/2025 A complete waste of my viwing time, The film has no message other than how to "screw-up" a plot. See more Hilda A @RT98816334 02/11/2024 "Screwdriver" boasts decent production values, an appealing set, and a lead performance that gives its all with the script. However, in the end, the film falls short, lacking the depth and impact it needed to truly succeed. If you're looking for something to pass the time, it will do. See more Read all reviews
