TRICKS

About This Movie

TRICKS is this wild mix of comedy, horror, and romance that really takes you on a ride. Elise Ryder's direction gives it a unique tone—there's something campy and darkly funny about Charlotte, a trans sex worker who transforms her trauma into a weapon. The pacing feels a bit erratic, but it suits the chaotic energy of the story. The practical effects are a standout, especially during some of the revenge scenes; they’ve got that gritty realism that enhances the horror element. Performances are raw and authentic. It’s definitely not your standard genre blend but manages to balance its themes of empowerment and vengeance with some sharp humor. Definitely distinctive, you could say it's a reflection of the times and the struggles faced, wrapped in a quirky package.
