Film Review - Frankie Freako

FRANKIE FREAKO 1

Writer/director Steven Kostanski has developed quite a filmography, working to energize cult cinema with efforts such as “The Void,” “Father’s Day,” and “Manborg.” He hit a creative peak in 2021, with “PG: Psycho Goreman” delivering big laughs and inventive visuals, skillfully balancing the absurd with the wonderfully strange in one of the year’s best movies. The helmer is back with “Frankie Freako,” and he’s not stepping away from his love of the bizarre, merging elements of “Gremlins” and “Home Alone” for this comedy, with star Conor Sweeney paired with a collection of puppets for an adventure into hardcore partying. There’s a lot to process while watching “Frankie Freako,” with Kostanski staying close to his low-budget roots, offering big imagination and entertainment value with the endeavor, delivering a textured romp with ghoulish beings and the “square” who’s summoned them. Kostanski’s vision for weirdness remains a delight in this enjoyably oddball adventure. Read the rest at Blu-ray.com
