Redux Redux: The Indie Sci-Fi Gem That Feels Like Memento Meets Terminator

Описание: Every once in a while, an indie film lands that feels like you just discovered something special before the rest of the world catches up. That’s how I felt watching Redux Redux.

Written and directed by Kevin McManus and Matthew McManus, and starring their sister Michaela McManus in a career-defining lead performance, Redux Redux is a multiverse revenge thriller that genuinely feels like Memento meets Terminator — with a little Groundhog Day’s existential loop energy layered in.

The premise alone is gripping:A mother, Irene Kelly, repeatedly universe-hops to track down and kill alternate versions of the man who murdered her daughter. But what starts as mechanical vengeance evolves into something deeper — grief, guilt, survival, and the cost of refusing to let go.
It premiered in the Midnighter section at South by Southwest Film & TV Festival and now sits at 98% on Rotten Tomatoes — and for good reason. It’s tight. It’s tense. It’s emotionally searing.

This is the kind of indie sci-fi that reminds you how films like Memento or The Terminator must have felt when they first landed — lean, inventive, and impossible to ignore.

On a personal note: I’ve known the McManus brothers since Emerson College, and it’s been incredibly rewarding to watch their evolution from earlier films like Funeral Kings to The Block Island Sound — and now this. Redux Redux feels like a creative leap forward.

If you love ambitious indie sci-fi that blends emotional weight with genre propulsion, this is absolutely worth your time.
