Now in theaters, as well as VOD/digital platforms, we have an exclusive look at The Carnivores, starring Lindsay Burdge and Tallie Medel! Along with the clip, which you can watch below, we have writer / director Caleb Michael Johnson's comments on the relationship at the center of The Carnivores and what's hidden below the surface:
"Sometimes you don’t get to decide what your body wants. Actually, let’s refine that slightly: you never get to decide. The best you can do is get good at what to feed and what to starve; you can chew up an ugly bit here to make room for some prettier part there. You can go hunting for something that’s not already inside of you, trap it and eat it and hope it stays down. But it’s all still in there somewhere. Being a functional adult is mostly a matter of...

In light of SXSW’s cancellation, a private “homespun” screening of the only local production in the festival’s narrative line up, Caleb Johnson’s The Carnivores, was arranged at its cinematographer’s (Adam J. Minnick) Austin residence on the night it was scheduled to premiere. The event hoped to encapsulate the spirit of the festival all at once. Upon entrance, invited press, programmers and audience got their photo taken on a polaroid against a classic yellow backdrop and laurels. That polaroid fit snug inside an imitation festival badge. After attendees stuffed themselves with Tacodeli they dragged over the red carpet to their seats […]...

Dim echoes of David Lynch and early Roman Polanski abound throughout “The Carnivores,” a fitfully fascinating mix of teasing narrative opacity and stylized psycho-thriller atmospherics. The shot-in-Austin indie feature, originally set to premiere at the cancelled SXSW Film Festival, instead had a March 14 unveiling at a private event in the Texas capital city attended, according to a press release, by “the film’s crew, cast, friends & family, and prominent members of the Austin film community.”
Director Caleb Michael Johnson, working from a script he co-wrote with Jeff Bay Smith, walks a tricky tightrope here, and occasionally — especially during his movie’s first act — seems perilously close to toppling into absurdity. Indeed, there are moments when he inadvertently cues memories of the hilarious remark by Janeane Garofalo’s veterinarian talk show host in “The Truth About Cats and Dogs”: “You can love your dog.
