Reviews
In their review, The Knockturnal wrote, “Give Me An A is a compelling and daring work. It’s a timely, aggressive force that captures the current wave of anger and depression while maintaining hope and a rebellious snarkiness. While I have some personal favorite segments (Sweetie, The Last Store, Crucible Island, Our Precious Babies, mediEVIL, Plan C, and The Walk), I loved the anthology film in its entirety. Give Me An A a full picture of the impact overturning Roe v. Wade caused and encapsulates how horror is the best genre for tackling these issues.”
