Matou a Família e Foi ao Cinema

(88)

Jumps erratically between frenetic jubilance and brutal violence until the two finally meet. The relationship between the two girls is very reminiscent of Daisies, but takes the extra step further to spell out the romantic connection between the two. Solid piece of radical cinema.

Such a free film -- the guy that kills his family and goes to cinema eventually gets tortured; later on, he's seen as a drunk husband and father, and he kills wife and kid and dances. This is about fooling around, dancing, killing, bleeding, loving and singing, not exactly in this order. These two girls killing each other while orgastically laughing produce such an ending. It's a dirty and beautiful stunt -- first and last shots show the girls looking at the camera, seriously and laughing.

Aside from what the title spoilers, it has mild torture, and dancing, laughing lesbians. Seems very informed by late sixties counterculture, but it doesn't really know what to do with those ideas. It has no focus much less a plot to speak of.
