COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Ahead of its time submitted by jaegerla on March 15, 2010, 10:06am Fabulous film noir:

This is a luxuriously shot film centered on seediness and depravity. The characters will disgust you and when they don't disgust you they'll scare you.

Anticipate mesmerizing camera angles, a perfect script, and a delightful plot.

Well Said review submitted by kencza on August 25, 2017, 9:32pm I agree with the previous reviewer word for word
