Yeah, I'd normally give this kind of film a 5 or 6, but the first half is truly something else. Even with the potential to be better, it still stands as one of the most unique approaches to a zombie...

That's fair, I know a few people prefer his more grounded films, so that might be a factor as well. This has always been my favorite film from him though. The only feature film from him I haven't...

Nice review!

I think we're in agreement that the fantasy scenes aren't actually happening and simply occur in Henry's head. I also think Henry's baby and the barren, industrialized environment the...

I haven't gotten to that one yet, but I'd also recommend Time of the Gypsies (it's from the 80's though) and Underground. With the latter film, I was just as mind blown as I was baffled by what I had...

Re: Your Most Controversial Film Opinions?

I definitely don't see an issue with not watching films from reprehensible directors. Have Roman Polanski and Woody Allen made some really good/great films? Yes. By not watching them, are you missing...
