Lousy Carter Review: David Krumholtz Shines in Bob Byington's Dry Comedy

Martin Starr also steals the show in a tight feature that still speaks volumes about how we might react when faced with a death sentence.

Lousy Carter Review: David Krumholtz Shines in Bob Byington's Dry Comedy

What would you do if faced with a fast-approaching death sentence? Start cooking meth? Jump into a volcano? Drink yourself silly? A new dry comedy from acclaimed filmmaker Bob Byington (Infinity Baby) explores said notion with hilariously cringe effect. Collaborating once again with beloved character actor David Krumholtz (Oppenheimer) after their work on Frances Ferguson (2019), Byington is an auteur who cannot be stopped. And don't let the tight 80-minute duration (including end credits) of Lousy Carter fool you into thinking this is any sort of throwaway comedy effort.
