You will probably not like this movie. It is so harsh and rude at moments.
You probably will laugh at some of the absurdist scenes of the drunken sad people in the sleazy 70's bar.
It really draws you into the harsh sad lives of the characters. This is a true story about a serial killer. Often these kinds of movies are made in a matter of factness style, but what happens in this one is that it is all enveloped in an air of rudeness and sadness, by some overdramatization. At times this turns out in a kind of absurdist humor that is just perfect in it's kind (and actually really funny), but than all of a sudden it shocks into a vile hateful violence that actually hurts you as a viewer.
This is why I wrote my title: Tarantino and the like might seem violent, but really they have a Hollywood glamour over them. If you want to view and experience a glimpse of how the violence of a twisted serial killer might actually feel: Watch this.
This is beyond liking and disliking. This is about experiencing.
