Lurker
Diretto da Alex Russell
When a twenty-something retail clerk encounters a rising pop star, he takes the opportunity to edge his way into the in-crowd. But as the line between friend and fan blurs beyond recognition, access and proximity become a matter of life and death.
- DavidBunnyDad2 aprile 2026Sort of a Gen Z ``All About Eve,'' ``Lurker'' is a surprisingly mature and effective film, anchored by Archie Madekwe's believable turn as a rising pop singer (the music is pretty good) and suitably skeevy work from Théodore Pellerin as the sycophant who's either the best or worst thing that's ever happened to him. The film really earns its plaudits with a strong third act that eschews the cheap thriller plot crutches it could have so easily leaned on for something more challenging and thought-provoking.
- Kevin Ward29 luglio 2025I’d heard the buzz out of Sundance, so I was really glad to catch this at Fantasia—and it definitely lived up. Really assured and well-crafted film from Alex Russell about obsession, proximity to fame, and the crash that comes when you're no longer in someone’s orbit. Archie Madekwe is magnetic as Oliver, a rising star with that effortless draw—even more so than in Saltburn. But the real standout is Théodore Pellerin, playing Matthew with this soft, eerie intensity that slowly creeps under your skin. It’s about the high of being close to greatness—and the brutal comedown when that’s taken away. Addiction, withdrawal, identity collapse. Ends on a fantastic beat—abrupt and jarring, but so perfect. Really loved it.
- Oʂɯαʅԃσ Rσყҽƚƚ1 novembre 2025The film is solid. Beautiful shots of Los Angeles, clean script that doesn't over explain and creates an intriguing narrative without relying heavily on dialogue. The actors were all fantastic and it has a rawness to it. The character development takes its time and the lead is fleshed out well.

Would love for Sunny to actually change his hair just once. Poor pathetic little Bob Am I just now noticing people singing (usually original) songs in every film or is this some strange ultra trend?? Wait, oh shit, that was Kenny Beats!? Okay, that part’s cool. Watched at Warren Regal East Added to 2025 Ranked
