Agreed. Splinter was a pleasant little surprise that definitely made me cringe at points with the FX and foley work.

Some Guy Who Kills People (2011)
Thanks to everyone on here who recommended this film. It was definitely a pleasant surprise (a slow, deliberate off-putting character piece). Kevin Corrigan was fantastic as our off-kilter main character, Karen Black was cringingly loathing, and Lucy Davis was the undeniably charming Stephanie.
It definitely has its uncomfortable moments as our main character, Ken, is really just trying to navigate through the world while also getting over a really traumatic high school experience and simultaneously connecting with his estranged daughter. Through all of that there's humor, fantastic death scenes and a solid character piece.
My only complaints are that the kid was faaaar too precocious to be believable (a common complaint when you have this type of kid roll in misanthropic character pieces) and I thought the title was pretty lame.
Otherwise, highly recommended.
3.75/5.
