Miyazaki loves his evil force being this oil like sludge in his films and in this one it takes on a worm like evil.

The film takes a few detours in what one would expect a story like this to go, once the detective shows up I didn't know if this was suppose to be the same character or if it was a nod to the audience that this was simply a two man show no matter how many characters show up.

What he did next was take the film on a road show tour, where you get a Q&A with him after the movie, this is where I saw the film and his Q&A was longer than the movie.

There are plenty of depressingly dramatic moments scattered throughout this film, which Waititi would employ later on in films like JoJo Rabbit to varying degrees of success.

I understand most films like this back in the day were all fast, but the quick one liners from Bailey had me chuckling.

With a severed head jumping around biting people in the butt, it's hard to imagine that Sam Raimi did not get some kind of inspiration from this absurd film for his own absurdities in The Evil Dead.

The ending of the film reflects the ending to the original in a small way, having Michael eliminate his 'enemies'.

This is a film I probably would never have watched in my lifetime, just because of my awareness of it or interest, so thanks for the nomination...whoever you are.

A great reveal in regards to the contents of the tanker, the final shot of the film and the gritty feel really make the film stand out and I can see why it's considered a genre classic.

The film benefits from having a child as the lead character, doing stupid things because they just don't want to get in trouble.
