Buzzsaw (2005)
Wow the first movie in the Painathon of Doom was something I was totally not ready for. I thought this would be a run of the mill home made slasher flick and it's not. Its a drug fueled statement on mental illness. 2 odd guys work as super intendents at a ghetto apartment building. One is mentally ill and a druggy the other is just depressed but which one deep down is worse effect by life? People are dieing in super weird and mysterious ways but that's not really what the films about. Mysterious children show up when people die but are they even there or is this metaphor for all the drugs and mental illness that fills this run down roach filled apartment building, I dont know. The death seem super natural but the drug story elements are ugly and real and honestly depressing. These unknown actors are actually really good in this no budget movie. If there was more sexuality and a more artists direction this would feel like Greg Araki made a horror movie. Its a low rez shot on video horror film but makes me seriously question what shit the writers been through as it feels like they've been through some shit. Requiem for a Dream meets the Toolbox murders with a quarter of the budget. Wow what a start, I need to eat some snacks and start film number 2. Keep an eye on our facebook group for more info. This one is available on SRS, you can get it on dvd or from their vod channel.
