Primordial

Movie is a detonation of a human bomb with a series of dark woods shots and metal blasting. Some points get truly satanic and I feel at home in a cult of murderous activity, guns flashing like lightning and hell erupting up from the roots of some ancient tree. Great performances by Marylee, Erin, Eric, and the crazy lunatic "hey baby" guy at the party.

Primordial has a postmodern feel to it where scenes jump around, music blares, dark humor, unorthodox filming, and pastiche. There is also fragmentation and chaos abounding.

The relationship of Valerie and Tina was the most alluring. The one- sided attraction, the resistance, the play for power takes the audience into very uncomfortable places. It reminds me of the quote, I forget by whom, of the goal of a writer is to chase their protagonist up a tree and throw rocks at them.
