  My 3 year-old after seeing Wallace going down a translucent water slide in the nude, flashing his ass to all his neighbors: “I would like to do that. When can we do that?”

  Death Collector 1988

  Watched 02 Nov 2017 2

  Solidly a part of the ramshackle, punky Mad Magazine-esque genre wave of the 80’s, like Repo Man, Night of the Comet, and Dead End Drive-In. Maybe nakedly intentionally so. You know that quality Alex Cox movies have where it seems like they might fall apart at and second but they keep moving out of sheer momentum? (Again, punk.) this has that... but perhaps without the momentum. Especially in the back half where it takes an extremely ill-advised straight turn. But it’s got great music, fun performances, sharp editing, gorgeous framing, wild costumes, good gags... it’s enough for me.
