    Insane synth score, Throbbing Gristle-esque at times, alongside very goofy diegetic background synth funk. Does the Garth Marenghi slo-mo as padding out at several points. Some very beautiful fuzzy saturated shots of sunsets. Pretty much every angle is Dutch. Inspired use of dry ice; the parents party scene is pure accidental Lynch.

    In a word; sublime!!

    Favourite line: “Everyone says you’re crazy, that’s why they call you Crazy Vicky.”

    Saw this for the first time ever with an improvised live score at the Prince Charles, which included viola, prepared piano and cymbal. Was way more goofy, funny and lively than I thought it’d be, especially in the first few acts. I love how it gets progressively dark creepy and unsettling, peaking in the shot of the coffins being taken down the street (which the performer left eerily silent). Basic points, and 102 years late to the game, but, by god, whadda movie.
