Daily Plastic: Baghead

Movie	Our Take	Other Takes
Baghead Trailer . IMDB	It's a wonderfully entertaining film carefully engineered from toothpicks. Robert Davis Daily Plastic	Right: A refreshingly high-concept low-budget outing, the Duplass Brothers' Baghead is an immensely likeable and surprisingly well-executed genre hybrid. Michael Koresky Reverse Shot [M]anages at once to riff on the cheap transparency of shakycam tricks and deliver some genuine jolts. Rob Nelson Cinema Scope Wrong: If you walk out after 10 or 15 minutes, you will have seen the best parts of the film. Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times Undeniably It's very broad, but the satire — and its attendant babble — actually heightens the scares. The monstrous maniac with the bagged head is like an extension of the characters' own self-indulgence.... Too bad the movie collapses at the end when we find out what's really going on. Baghead is so much more vivid when it's indefinite. David Edelstein New York Magazine
