"Mackay displays a similar sensibility to "I Saw the TV Glow's" Jane Schoenbrun with themes of finding one's identity, a nostalgia for 90's television and love of shocking pink." #TheSerpentsSkin #BUFF26 #AliceMaioMackay

Here's my Nov haul from #vinegarsyndrome. So happy to be able to get more #alicemaiomackay before my subscription came to an end. Absolutely loved my years as a subscriber but have serious doubts about my capacity to store further titles, and funds for #mtf #trans things must take priority. #horror

Shudder Saturday: Carnage For Christmas (2024) <p>Australian writer-director Alice Maio Mackay (working here once again with co-writer Benjamin Pahl Robinson) is a ridiculously young and prolific film-maker. She's also transgender, which helps to inform and layer her filmography. It's just a shame that her talent doesn't yet equal her enthusiasm, BUT <b>Carnage For Christmas</b> shows how far she has come since her debut feature, <b><a href="https://foritismansnumber.blogspot.com/2022/09/shudder-saturday-so-vam-2022.html">So Vam</a></b>. There continues to be something to be said, however, in favour of the past times when young aspiring film-makers would have more time to learn the craft as they struggled and hustled to find the funds and resources to get their films made. The worst elements of <b>Carnage For Christmas</b> are the ones that feel as if Mackay took the quickest and cheapest option when a bit of time and care might have reaped greater reward.</p><p>Jeremy Moinea plays Lola, a true-crime podcaster who heads home for the Christmas holiday. Heading home at that time of year can be stressful, even more so when you're a trans woman, and things get worse when someone starts a killing spree, endangering those in the present, many of them also being aware of similar killings that happened some time in the past.</p><p>It's very frustrating to see how Mackay seems content to churn out features that don't feel properly finished. The acting, the special effects, and even the plotting and dialogue all feel wildly varying in quality and half-assed. She has improved in a number of ways, mainly in the strength of the main ideas being explored, but has remained disappointingly stuck in other ways. </p><p>Moineau is a decent lead, which helps the movie immensely. She's not the best at the actual acting, but her presence and attitude more than makes up for that, and she's someone worth rooting for as she wades into increasingly dangerous waters. Dominique Booth isn't bad, playing Lola's sister, Zarif does enough to make his few scenes work, and Tumelo Nthupi and Joe Romeo manage to stand out from a surprisingly crowded supporting cast.</p><p>It's a shame that there isn't a bit more done here to comment on the very popular true-crime podcasting bubble, although other films have already made good headway through that fertile ground, but at least Mackay uses some of the brief runtime (this clocks in at just about 70 minutes) to explore another side of the trans experience. I won't detail any more here, I don't want to spoil anything that majorly contributes to the plotting, but Mackay feels like a stronger voice when depicting specific issues that surely come from a place of personal experience.</p><p>I still have a few other features helmed by Mackay to watch, but I'm not optimistic about any of them feeling fully-formed and fully worth my time. The slight upward trajectory of her abilities have helped me become just a little bit more enthusiastic though. I'll keep supporting her for a while yet, and I'll be absolutely delighted if she one day realises that she can help herself immensely by learning to walk more steadily before trying to run.<br/></p><p>4/10</p><p>If you have enjoyed this, or any other, review on the blog then do consider the following ways to show your appreciation.
