’Redux Redux’ Review: A Mother’s Revenge Takes on Different Dimensions in Muscular Multiverse Thriller
The McManus Brothers' 'Redux Redux' follows a grieving mom searching the multiverse for a reality where her daughter is still alive.
Kevin and Matthew McManus first showed up at SXSW just over a decade ago with their foul-mouthed kid comedy “Funeral Kings”; one of the most charming parts of that fest debut was the fake movie posters for the local video store in the film, dream projects in every sense of the word. Irene wanders through various dimensions, throwing off strong Linda Hamilton vibes as she makes quick work of Nelson (Jeremy Holm), the man who killed her daughter Anna, multiple times. Initially it might seem like there isn’t much at stake in “Redux Redux.” But the McManus brothers give their protagonist something to care about besides her own daughter when, in her travels, she stumbles onto Mia (Stella Marcus), a teenaged orphan set to be another victim of Nelson’s in one realm before Irene handily dispatches him.
