Review of Gummo (1997) by M D — 19 Jun 2009
Disturbing is easily the first word that comes to mind in this episodic and creepy film highlighting the time filling events of the youth of Xenia, Ohio. Filled with a cast of bizarre looking people it feels almost voyeuristic in execution.
From killing cats to visiting a boy who pimps out his Down syndrome wife to smashing cars in the junkyard and sniffing glue, the wandering youth traverse a rundown and near inhospitable landscape still affected by a tornado from the 70รข??s.
Additional viewing and evaluation required.
