Starts as one thing and ends as a few others. Extremely strong performance from the lead. Well directed and really moves. If it were made today they’d have to insert 20 minutes of traumatic backstory. No wonder these guys are finding success, this was really good.

A strong entry in the “no plot, just vibes” canon. Seaside horror with kaleidoscope colors.  Alternating between long eerie takes and sharp jarring cuts with blink-and-you’ll-miss-it strangeness. They walk to the edge of explaining and pull back, thankfully. I wonder how many times Argento and Romero went to see this. Deep Red and Dawn owe a lot to this thing. A perfect companion to Carnival of Souls where you’re relishing in the fogginess of a dream.

So glad this exists, but plays a lot like one of those old VH1 shows where they quickly cut between people. Very important to document the cultural force that is Cannon Films and make sure their legacy is never forgotten.
