The actual performances during the film range from excellent to somewhat amateurish, but this amateurism is easily absorbed by the sheer power of the imagery on display.
See it - if you dare.
An acid movie flashback a la Oliver Stone.
The film evokes how homicide became the ultimate orgasm for kids who had turned themselves into zombies of flesh.
Van Bebber is out to capture the mood of a generation-long bad trip and succeeds with unnerving accuracy by telling the story within the family circle.
Harrowing and imaginatively made.
There's no real journalism here, just the sort of appalling revisionism that can turn a bloodbath into a beach party.
