Production
The film originated as a 20-page play that Phillips wrote in 2016 while working as a PA on other film sets. When discussing the thematic inspiration for the film, Phillips said: "To put it simply, I wanted to talk about a yearning for normalcy and a 'regular life,' but also feeling totally broken and too fucked up to deserve that sort of thing."
Release
The film premiered at the Fantasia International Film Festival on 16 July 2022. It is also part of Fantastic Fest's Burnt Ends 2022 showcase.
Reception
Mary Beth McAndrews of Dread Central rated the film 3.5 stars out of 5, writing "Transgressive, upsetting, and disturbing, ‘All Jacked Up And Full Of Worms’ is a slippery nightmare that tries a little too hard to be disgusting." The film received positive reviews in ScreenAnarchy and RogerEbert.com.
Simon Rother of HorrorNews.net was more critical of the film, giving it a score of 4/10.
