I watched
Dodgeball for the 10th time last night, which I suppose proves I'm not against watching movies multiple times. However, I don't enjoy watching horror movies multiple times. That isn't to say I don't enjoy horror movies. I love those darn things. But when it comes to watching them again, it's likely I'll choose not to because: they tend to be high burnt out and best enjoyed the first time. Wouldn't you rather not know which way the axe is coming from?
Sam Rockwell, Jacob Kogan and Vera Farmiga in Joshua. "Some kids are simply born bad."
20 years ago, I was burnt out on Halloween . I played that VHS tape until it snapped inside my VCR. I'm burnt out on Jaws , The Exorcist , The Howling and Alien . But I'm not completely burnt out on The Shining . I can still draw entertainment value from it. The steadycam shot leading to the two girls in the hallway gets me every time. One must appreciate freaky s*** like that.Joshua . It's in theaters now, and it's worth your $10. It's a different strain of horror. More a thriller, really. It's chilling in the way The Shining is; not because it has supernatural elements - it doesn't - because it's deeply psychological. It's all manipulation, no decapitation. And isn't that the most insidious sort of horror?
Plus, Joshua was made for repeat viewing. There's subliminal stuff going on that - unless you have superhuman abilities - can only be detected the second or third time around. Or, if you're like me, when it's pointed out to you.
So what's so subliminal about Joshua ? Director George Ratliff will explain in our upcoming interview. Stay tuned!
For a closer look at this sick flick, click here for Kris Brit's review.
