Nick Gomez' "Illtown" is a brilliant film that seems like a genre picture on the surface, but it transcends almost every aspect of the "drug-crime picture" by eliminating typical plots and conventions. The pace is slow, dark, surreal, and incredibly original. Very few people have ever even heard of this movie. Those who have seen it don't like it since it has the courage to be different and focus on the characters instead of action and shoot-outs. It's time for the DVD to be released.
