"The Surfer " is a male-meltdown special about a bourgeois prat trying to get back to his roots and instead being humiliated by a crew of beach thugs.

Director Lorcan Finnegan is an Irish -Irish up-and-comer in the New Horror school his 2019 “Varium’s”.

The actor's performances can feel of a piece with coherent works of craziness like “ Mandy ’s ( 2018 ), “Pig” ( 2021 ) and “Longlegs’ ( 2024 ) In “The Surfer ,” he never seems more than a guest star hired to ride the wave of gonzo.

While his fans will get what they came for eat the rat! the rest of us are stuck in the undertow.
