The film stars Sheila McCarthy, Julian Richings, Konstantina Mantelos, Josh Cruddas, and Yannick Bisson.

The website's critics' consensus reads, "A talented cast and fiendishly frightening premise combine to make Anything for Jackson a must-watch for fans of supernatural horror.

[14] Leslie Felperin of The Guardian awarded the film 3 out of 5 stars, writing: "Dyck and Cooper turn this almost comical premise into an interesting work that treads the line between genres with agility."

She concluded: "it’s a richer devil’s brew than you would expect, crisply edited and moodily shot – even if the last act doesn’t quite hit the spot.

"[15] Writing for RogerEbert.com, Brian Tallerico gave the film a score of 3 out of 4 stars, saying that it "lures viewers in with its clever concept and instantly strong characters only to present them with the kind of nightmare fuel that would impress Clive Barker.

"[17] Joe Lipsett of Bloody Disgusting wrote: "Despite losing its focus in the back half, McCarthy and Richings deliver great lead performances that – coupled with a creepy ghost design and some genuinely unsettling moments - makes Anything for Jackson a worthwhile twist on the exorcism/possession subgenre.".
