Abbie is not allowed to leave the couch until he goes beyond the level 256 of Pac-Man. Cast
ProductionThe film was shot in the garage of a house owned by production designer Mike Saunders' parents.[4] It took four months to build the set.[4] The film's premise was inspired by Luis Buñuel's The Exterminating Angel.[4] ReleaseThe film had its premiere at the South by Southwest on March 9, 2018.[5] It was also screened at the Fantasia International Film Festival,[14] the Traverse City Film Festival,[9] and the Vancouver International Film Festival.[10] It was released in the United States on March 22, 2019.[11] ReceptionAt Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an approval rating of 65% based on 23 reviews, and an average rating of 6.8/10.[9] The website's critical consensus reads, "Relaxer is bound to strike many viewers as unpleasant, but this thoroughly unique comedy will strike a chord with fans of defiantly unsettling cinema."[12] At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating to reviews, the film has a weighted average score of 82 out of 100, based on 7 critics, indicating "universal acclaim".[13] Eric Kohn of IndieWire gave the film a grade of A, describing it as "a grotesque downward spiral, both hilarious and mesmerizing, but above all elevated by its insights into the depraved final gasp of the analog age."[14] Calum Marsh of The Village Voice stated that the film is "funnier, nastier, and more abrasive" than Joel Potrykus' 2014 film Buzzard.[15] Nick Allen of RogerEbert.com said, "through its precise filmmaking and whirlwind script about one loser who never gets off the couch, it's a magnetic, five-senses experience for slacker cinema."[16] John DeFore of The Hollywood Reporter said, "the claustrophobic, one-set film clearly invites metaphorical readings — but its allegories will play best to viewers who can stomach the idea of spending eternity on a couch playing Nintendo."[17] Carson Lund of Slant Magazine gave the film 3.5 stars out of 4, calling it "a showcase for [Joshua] Burge and his exceptional features, from his beady eyes to slender frame."[18] Joshua Burge won the Best Actor award at the 2018 Fantasia International Film Festival.[6][7] References1. ^{{cite
