Ugh, what a wild ride!

Rating: 9/10 (18 March 2014)

Before mentioning any lovely details about this film. First, I have to mention the cinematography. Jesus, lord above. The high-contrast black and white moved me to tears. For a low-budget film it puts you in this dark, disturbing, grimy world that I never wanted to leave. I'm getting goose pimples just thinking about it. Unreal. Now, the character set up by Sean Gullette is so dark, so tortured, yet, so real. To think that this was Aronofsky's debut is just unbelievable. The soundtrack is definitely one of the best electronic soundtracks of all time. It swarms as you view the film and really makes you forget about the outside world. Such a disturbing film, but one that really sticks with you. So worth it!!
