Anything for Jackson is a high-concept horror film that finds its strength in narrative subversion rather than demographic breadth. It replaces traditional domesticity with a radicalized, shared pursuit of occult goals, challenging the sanctity of the natural order. However, the film lacks significant diversity in terms of race and LGBTQ+ identity. The narrative remains focused on a narrow, non-conformist spiritual framework that does not extend to a broader range of human experiences.
