Review of Kids (2011) by Cultural Infidel — 16 May 2008

First saw this movie when I was 15. Blew my mind. These kids were living a far different life than I had ever seen. Sex, rape, STD's, violence. Really eye opening.

Five stars because of its artistic bravery. This film is raw, candid, and some would call border-line child pornography…
