Black Tiger (2021)
Finally a low budget action movie that hit it out of the park - and in your face!
This wild romp feels like cowboy bebop/Golgo 13 met a James Bond knockoff B movie in all the best ways! From over the performances to deeply stylized fight scenes, I couldn't get enough of this low budget mastwrpiece.
Get ready for fireworks explosions, recycled vacation footage, insane computer animated psychedelia, creative set pieces that appear to be someone's backyard, and some ingenious filmmaking that transcends location, time, and space.
WARNING: spoilers
My personal favorite was when the France footage suddenly became grainier and lost saturation, and after a minute I realized that this was old footage from a vacation that then cuts into one of the best kills of the movie, a man being thrown from the Eiffel Tower!
This is a masterpiece of nanobudget filmmaking that doesn't take no for an answer - or itself too seriously. After seeing how far he can stretch a dime, I can't wait to see what else this director comes up with!
I Need You Dead! (2020)
So much more than what I'd expected
This film is bonkers. Here I was thinking I was watching a goofy horror comedy when BLAMO! I start to see a deeper take on ye filmmakers and the act of creation. As the film progressed, the filmmakers' story begins to overwhelm the story of the film, until a film that couldn't gross me out or move me more than some laughs and smiling yelps became one of the most disturbing and heartfealt cinematic experiences I've seen in a long time. It's amazing how it was accomplished, and it tells a far more honest story than what I'd previously thought possible through the premise. Bravo! A triumph of indie cinema
