Jobless and searching for purpose, Emma and a group of young people from Los Angeles drive up the coast to make quick cash trimming marijuana on a secluded farm in Northern California. Cut off from the rest of the world, they soon realize that Mona -- the seemingly amiable owner of the estate -- is harboring secrets darker than any of them could imagine. It becomes a race against time for Emma and her friends to escape the dense woods with their lives.

Ariel Vida’s half-baked release toggles between campy horror and social commentary while failing to deliver a real goosebump.

3.5/5

Ariel Vida’s Trim Season is a fun stoner horror movie that overcomes its first-act problems to create an ambitious piece of filmmaking.

4/5

Foregoing the typical “drugs are bad” narrative, Trim Season instead is an exploration of trauma with notes on gender and familial pressure wrapped in gothic trappings.

Trim Season merges Gen Z culture and folk horror in a story that feels progressive and new. A microcosm of the clash between generational power forms a poignant reminder to listen to each other lest we ensure our own mutual destruction.

Any explanation of the witchery may leave something to desire but there's still an undeniable skill on display from Ariel Vida plus a notable performance from ‘V’ legend Jane Badler that could thrust her into a staple on the horror scene for years to come

4/5

Ultimately, Trim Season is a suspenseful, uniquely crafted story highlighting pain and sacrifice that should spark some powerful conversation around women and gender.

Stoner horror is not cool, man, but it’s pretty funny if you imagine stoners watching this. There were some holes in the hokey-ness of it all but it was original enough to be entertaining enough.

Yeaaaaaa, this movie just wasn't for me. Give it a shot I guess? You'll know whether you'll like it within the first twenty minutes.

88% Fresh. Clearly a lot of friends and family left positive reviews for this film because this was the biggest piece of crap I've ever seen. The writers are clearly some lames who should've never been allowed in Humboldt. They are the definition of culture vultures and wouldn't know how to write a good story if they spent the rest of their lives trying. Hope the dough was worth it. You'll never be cool. Worst sellout garbage ever. F-. Zero stars.

Could've been an okay movie; but it ended up just being a dumb movie.

Boy, this is dumb. Some terrifically bad acting, and a "plot" that's nothing but gobbledygook.
