10/10
Thomas Cruise style

It's true, Potrykus' new horror film "Relaxer" is a truly unique experience. This film is inventive, creative, potent, and just flat out cool. David Dastmalchien is very good as always. As a huge indie horror lover, I almost feel priviliged watching him in this movie. Joshua Burge, who must be good friends with the director, was also quite good and did well with the nature of the role. This is his wheelhouse. The majority of the beginning of the movie begins to drag a little at times but by the time the movie was over I was in awe. For a dude who was born in 90, I am very familar with Y2K and remember the panic. Although set in one location, this movie depicts the crumbling of society norms quite well. It's not always exactaly the view, but the feeling. Its like a "what if" film. The ending has one of the very best practical effects ive ever seen. This is a scary movie and in my opinion Joel Potrykus' best film to date
