Justin Kurzel

VOD REVIEWS: Justin Kurzel's THE SNOWTOWN MURDERS is an under appreciated horror masterpiece waiting to be re-discovered on VOD

The reek of degradation is so impactful, it’s hard to wash away from the mind. And therein lies the true horror the film offers as well as its cinematic triumph. The murders take a back seat to the explorations of the utter raping of the psyche of a teenager we are subjected to. No amount of gore could make an audience more uneasy, seeking the exits than what The Snowtown Murders has conjured.

TEN MOST RECENT FILMS WATCHED: GIMME DANGER Jim Jarmusch Tops the list: Catching up on stuff I’d missed at fests and watching some cool “finds” on VOD from Films Gone Wild

I was kinda all over the map with this group of ten films. Bookended by films I’d meant to see or missed at festivals (ELLE, TALLULAH, DEIDRA AND LANEY ROB A TRAIN, GIMME DANGER), the first bit of homework for DIFF (BERLIN SYNDROME), and a couple “look at this good movie with all these stars that made a beeline for VOD (BRIMSTONE, THE HOLLOW POINT).
