YOUR RATING

Carter Doyle, Nathan Hill, and Nicholas Wightman in Suburban Zero (2011)

The suburbs are a labyrinth. A man is stuck. There are many forks. Anxieties form. Friends become relative. Everyone is walking. Two men refuse coerced vision. Movement in still life. Retribution from the sky. Intermittent head trauma. What is that building? Where is Uncle Jean? Who is the man from the DVD? Have you mown the lawn? What is a Suburban Zero? The dream ends here.

Incredible!

I cannot believe I staggered across this utterly obscure gem. I picked it up on DVD from a friend, he gave me the impression the film was 'too disturbing to watch'. The film is set in a bleak Melbourne, seemingly focusing on suburban isolation, mental breakdown and our unquenched desires. The somewhat confusing film follows the main character 'Nick' and his quest to find out who 'The man in the DVD' really is. This film is more of a glimpse into our nightmares than a story of man versus demon. An electrifying movie, definitely worth watching. The shed scene where one of the characters discovers a secret trapdoor is incredible. This movie helps to destroy the myth that all good art is made in the 'inner city'.
