83 Diseased Americana. Such a wild ride - flows from characteristics of giallo and neo-noir all while building a fractured portrait of a family in consumerist turmoil. The Tucson, Arizona setting is unlike anything I've seen, so engulfed in scuzz and synth-waves of…

An utterly deranged work, approaching the same ideas as The Shining in its view of America's rotting soul but from the angle of giallo and acid westerns in lieu of Lynch and the masters of '60s Euromodernism. A city slicker woman is wooed out west, but even the wide rural…

“Stop myself? I didn’t ask to be the one. I couldn’t believe it. It’s like somebody else is doing it and I’m watching. And I’m going crazy, I’m going insane. This is insanity! So I had to look my predicament right in the eye, and it said, “you are the one, you can’t run any…

She's dead, wrapped in plastic... At first, I thought this was gonna be Donald Cammell's giallo, as an early scene depicts an artfully composed murder, complete with Pollock-esque exploding fluids, gloved hands, close-up eyeballs and broken glass - but it doesn't really…
