Retro Review: Enter the Void

Posted on 3 Mar 201512 Nov 2017 by Lackey
Paz de la Huerta and Nathaniel Brown star in ENTER THE VOID.

A bold, unique, singular, visionary work about terrible people I didn't engage with doing terrible things I didn't care about.

Retro Review: Oldboy

Posted on 25 Aug 201412 Nov 2017 by Lackey
Oldboy

Oldboy thoughtfully considers its twin themes of revenge and redemption, presenting dark comedy, stylized violence and emotional devastation. Not just good or great, it's one of the finest thrillers ever made.
