Thoroughly successful both as icky art house horror and as an allegory of generational trauma, Scott Cooper’s 'Antlers' continues the director’s hot streak while bearing the unmistakable mark of one of its producers, Guillermo del Toro, writes John DeFore
. Adapted from a short story by Nick Antosca , it watches as an ancient, malevolent monster terrorizes a small community already wracked by drugs and despair. Child actor Jeremy T. Thomas impresses in his first lead performance, a haunted turn embodying the picture’s deepest conflicts about family, duty and self-preservation.
Thomas’ Lucas is a 12-year-old shouldering terrible responsibility. His father, a single parent who cooks meth in an abandoned Oregon coal mine, has undergone a frightening transformation, and must now be kept under lock and key so he can’t harm Lucas. Lest he escape and feed on townsfolk, he eats roadkill and small animals the boy traps.
