Verotika (2019)
Verotika film premiere. Chicago 6/13/19
First off, this isn't a plot summary.
There is plenty of shock and gore with some pretty cool cinematography and pretty bizarre story lines throughout this anthology film. In true Glenn Danzig fashion, there is a lot that the mainstream just won't get. He openly told the audience in Chicago that he wouldn't try to make an academy award winning film which is why he went with the production team that he went with. He said that they let him do whatever he wanted, otherwise he would not have done it at all.
Alot of the critics out there are bashing the film calling it an unintentional comedy because when Glenn came out for a QnA after the film, he said that he thought it was funny how the audience was laughing during some scenes that he didn't expect people to laugh at. What the critics lack to lell you is that he said this while in "good spirits" and laughing about it, comparing the crowd to his younger self and friends that would go to horror movies and do the same thing.
Over all, it was a blast. Not quite as dark and demented as one might think coming from Glenn Danzig but definitely bizarre and twisted. If that's what you're into then you'll probably enjoy it. I know I did!
