Featured review
"Wrong Side of the Tracks" is presented as an afternoon movie on a local TV station (for those of us old enough to remember those). The movie involves two girls who head out to a concert and, when looking to buy some grass, cross paths with the wrong people.
Some very odd things about this little flick. First of all, the setup plays like a virtual note-by-note remake of the beginning of "Last House on the Left", although it veers pretty strongly away once the girls meet up with the gang and has none of that movie's nastiness. But even weirder, the "afternoon movie" motif is punctuated by loads of fake commercials. And these are not humorous commercials (although there is one that appears to be comedic), not scary commercials, they are just regular fake commercials that could possibly be actual commercials for local businesses. And some of them are inexplicably repeated more than once!
This was a bit of a tough watch -- the storyline really ended up going nowhere, the "fake commercials" certainly didn't contribute to the story or the entertainment. Maybe they were added to pad the film out to 45 minutes so it could be sold as a "movie" as opposed to a "short"? Also, don't get taken in by the poster art or the "Extreme" manner, this is a pretty tame flick. There are worse movies out there, just know what you're getting into if you decide to watch.
