Some Freaks explores the way in which those who are teased and tortured for being different can turn on other outsiders, and the emotional trauma of that poisonous isolation. Aug 4, 2017 | Full Review…

All the actors are good, but Harrington is remarkable. It's not just the physical changes in her character, but the genuineness with which she inhabits her. Aug 3, 2017 | Rating: 3.5/5 | Full Review…

Playwright Ian MacAllister-McDonald's debut feature is a refreshingly grounded, unsentimental yet empathetic slice of D-list teenage life that goes a bit overboard in its final act. Jul 31, 2017 | Full Review…

The deeper Some Freaks wades into what becomes a series of sadistic and masochistic humiliations, the more McDonald's film begins to feel schematic. Aug 4, 2017 | Rating: 6/10 | Full Review…

The psychological acuity with which [director Ian MacAllister-McDonald] delineates his characters more than makes up for [the film's] relatively minor lapses. Aug 4, 2017 | Full Review…

McDonald's point, that we're all freaks, or none of us are, doesn't deliver complete satisfaction, but it's a nuanced and pointed statement that lingers long after the end credits stop rolling. Aug 2, 2017 | Rating: 6.5/10 | Full Review…

You won't be able to shake writer/director Ian MacAllister McDonald's powerful commentary on what it's like to grow up today when you're less than perfect. Aug 2, 2017 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Even when the script falters, it's saved by a small cast that nails the required flavours of social ineptitude, refusing to succumb to stereotype. Aug 1, 2017 | Full Review…
