DRILLER KILLER, THE(1979)
The music SUCKS! The story sucks! The "acting"
sucks! Some nudity! Overall, this movie, wait
for it, SUCKS!! F+
From a reviewer at IMDb.com:
Ferrara's best film, in which characteristic
pretentiousness is amusingly deflated and the
usual profusion of religious iconography leads
to a compelling, frightening vision of hell.
Not the video nasty British moral guardians
feared, this is another TAXI DRIVER/REPUSION
journey of alienated mental decline in a big
city, a paranoid in a world where nobody
really cares. While never comic (this IS
Ferrara!), there are piquant touches, such
as Tony Coca-Cola and the Roosters, and the
low-budget gives the film a compelling
seediness. It gets on your nerves after
a while, though. - alice liddell
