3/10
Uncredited remake
3 March 2020
Warning: Spoilers
Watching the German film A YOUNG MAN WITH HIGH POTENTIAL, I can't help but be reminded of the 1982 film TRANCE, aka DER FAN. This film is essentially a gender-swap version of that, albeit made without all of the substance and style that made the 1980s version so morbidly engrossing (and rewatchable). What we're left with here is random explicit and unwanted sexuality, a repulsive lead character, low budget, low-fi filmmaking, and a generally depressing air. I'm really not sure why anybody would want to sit through a film like this, because it has nothing to recommend it above pure sadism and cod psychology.
