Weapons: How Zach Cregger Uses Nightmares and Non-Linear Storytelling to Explore Tragedy
Zach Cregger’s follow-up to his 2022 horror hit Barbarian dives into a small-town mystery after a shocking disappearance. By weaving together shifting viewpoints from Julia Garner, Alden Ehrenreich, and Josh Brolin’s characters, Cregger peels back layers of grief and guilt, letting each perspective slowly untangle the truth.
He also leans hard into surreal nightmare sequences, using them as a window into his characters’ subconscious minds. The result is a genre-bending thriller that blends vivid horror imagery with a puzzle-like narrative, keeping you guessing until the very end.
