On the surface, WEAPONS is a horror film about how a town unravels when a classroom full of third-graders goes missing. But since its box office breakthrough last summer, critics and viewers alike have intuited it as a school shooting allegory that doesn’t bother with (or stoop to) literalism. In a grimly familiar tableau, a townhall meeting is called; packed with grieving parents, answers and explanations are demanded & survivors are both lionized and blamed. In this particular classroom, the lone survivor of the mass disappearance is an already-withdrawn boy named Alex (the incredible Cary Christopher, just nominated for a Critics Choice Award). When the investigation leads nowhere and Alex’s teacher (Ozark’s excellent Julia Garner) gets labeled as a witch, she risks everything to reach out to Alex in hopes of finding answers. What she and a small group of townspeople discover point them in the unlikely direction of the real source of evil, giving us just enough time to meditate on the deeper poetics of this excellent contribution to the genre. WEAPONS was just named to the Oscars shortlist for Best Casting, and it’s no surprise that esteemed character actress Amy Madigan was just nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actress.
