Interview with the Antichrist (2020)
unexpectedly SPELLBINDING and Full of Tension
On the face of it, a movie about a TV interview doesn't sound that exciting does it? But Interview with the Antichrist is utterly absorbing, I couldn't take my eyes off the screen.
I agree with one critic that you should have at least some end-times study in you as this film is like a treatise or doctoral dissertation, yet absolutely enthralling from end-to-end.
I can't give away the ending, but it's just magnificent. By the time the end credits roll, you will be sitting like a stunned statute, but completely blessed.
There is not one single tittle that is left out. You will have a PhD in end times prophecy by the time the film ends.
Excellent production. Excellent performances by two very good character actors.
Joe Versus the Volcano (1990)
Good Clean Fun!
I give this film a 8/10 - because it is a hidden gem and in a way I think an 8 is a lot more accurate than the current score it has.
As many other user comments suggest, the masses do not readily accept this film as being on par with the blockbuster system that governs movie grading.
It is important to realize that Joe versus the Volcano was written and directed by a playwright and so, if you don't like it when your movie looks a little cheesy and the effects aren't state-of-the-art cgi quality, we get it - you hate it. However, for fans of the film, it is just those elements that define the experience - the fairytale mood, the obviously fake shark, a huge moon, the strangest luggage shop and subtly placed over-sized dogs.
From an artistic perspective, some of the sets, as low-budget as they may have been, were absolutely brilliant - could the office have been more miserable - the perfect environment in which to triumphantly put your boss in his place.
In a way Joe versus the Volcano reminds you of when you were a kid reading your favorite story about a voyage or adventure - your imagination was half the experience. When you were a kid you noticed things like big dogs. This movie is about Joe's waking up and returning to that mindset of absorbing the wonderful things that surround you, sharing experiences with others and, 'living in constant amazement'.
