Ein hipper Fashion Store geht über Nacht in den Lockdown, um das neue It-Piece der Saison vor der Öffentlichkeit bis zum Verkaufsstart am nächsten Morgen geheim zu halten. Doch die Jeans, die sich der jeweiligen Körperform individuell anpassen können, erwachen zum Leben und beginnen, die eingesperrten Mitarbeiter*innen zu meucheln. Elza Kepharts Slaxx ist glorioser Rückgriff auf die konsumkritischen B-Filme aus der Hochphase der Reaganomics wie Larry Cohens The Stuff. Spätestens wenn mehrere Paar Jeanshosen zur Bollywood-Mucke durch den Verkaufsraum tanzen, wird diese satirische Splatter-Granate zu einem der besten Midnight Movies des Jahres.
