The feminine perspectives of "XX" create for powerfully compelling and original horror tales that operate within the genre while testing the boundaries of traditional storytelling and style Full Review

Rating: 3/4 -- A first of its kind in a male-dominated genre, these four short films are signed, sealed and delivered as a form of empowerment. Full Review

Its fully feminine component is just a gimmick, but as a starting point, it is as good as any other. [Full review in Spanish] Full Review

Rating: 8/10 -- The aptly named XX is a celebration of women creating bewitching works of horror. These shorts result in a highly entertaining anthology focusing on different areas of horror. Full Review

Framed by pretty banal animation, the film as a whole reflects a rather limited vision of womanhood, with three shorts focused solely on mothers. That XX proves patchy is a disappointment, particularly as it is a noble project. Full Review

'The Birthday Party' plays like a Luis Buñuel-style commentary on the absurdity of bourgeois manners....Like the anthology as a whole, 'The Birthday Party' has some fascinating elements...

Rating: 3/5 -- Two out of four is not a bad average, particularly when the half in question aren't pestiferous enough to warrant a ruckus. Fans of this sort of thing won't go hungry. Full Review

Product Description:

This horror anthology contains four short films by female directors Karyn Kusama, Annie Clark (aka the musician St. Vincent), Roxanne Benjamin, and Jovanka Vuckovic. The stories include: "The Birthday Party," about a harried mom (Melanie Lynskey) who has to keep the fun going at her son's birthday, even after she finds her husband dead; "Her Only Living Son," about a mother (Christina Kirk) whose suspicions about her teenage son (Kyle Allen) prove terrifyingly correct; "The Box," an adaptation of a story by Jack Ketchum about a young boy's self-starvation after a chance encounter on the subway; and "The Fall," about college stoners who must survive a wilderness adventure. Stop-motion animations by Sofía Carrillo provide interstitials between the chapters.
