The Age of Commercialism
That was an excellent one.
I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
I am a concerned celluloid citizen. I am concerned because there has always been an unwritten agreement, an unspoken truth, for all low-budget B-Movie makers since beginning-less time: If low-budget, then everyone tries their hardest and gives it their all, with the glorious bigger picture being a production based on passion, humor, camaraderie and most of all fun. Classic examples include The Evil Dead Part 2, Death Race 2000 and Soylent Green. As for Blood Car, the situation is reversed. The producers have only a business model in mind, and that business model is based on spending the majority of the movie's dollars on manipulating the public into believing we've created an avante-garde, Indie-funk art-house master-quirk film, when actually absolutely no emotional energy was spent on the script, casting, direction or production at all. To me this is a sad state of affairs. It's a sign that Ed Wood's vision and passion is going away for good. With this understanding, I encourage you to Boycott Blood Car, as it is a fake, phony and plastic virus that tries to manipulate us all into believing we are going to be treated into something like Quentin Tarantino's Kurt Russel masterpiece. Do the right thing. Send a financial message.
Sick-in-the-head, foul-mouthed, crude-humored comedy satire on the obsession of fuel about a quiet, scrawny, geeky vegan kindergarten schoolteacher, Archie Andrews(Mike Brune)who discovers by accident that his wheat-grass engine in fact works on blood. Through trial and error, Archie creates a metal fan chopper which he sets up in his trunk for animals with a long plastic tube that feeds blood to the engine..but soon Archie finds that people make his car's engine run longer. What ultimately motivates Archie to commit such atrocities like dumping the carcasses of a dead old woman neighbor, war vet with plastic limbs(..he actually beats the poor guy into the trunk with his own plastic leg), a bubbly hot brain-dead blond(..he goads her to his trunk by proclaiming that puppies are back there), and black gangster(..and a gas station owner who wishes to know why the black gangster was in Archie's trunk)in his trunk body smasher is the fact that profane and slutty Meat Stand operator(!)Denise(Katie Rowlett)will perform all kinds of sexual acts just to have the pleasures of riding in a car(..she has a superiority complex deriving from the idea that those who ride in cars are simply better than those who can not afford to). The relationship between Archie and Denise is a tool for an endless parade of homosexual gags..you'll find out as you watch it. Lorraine(..cutie Anna Chlumsky, of "My Girl" fame who is so short and nerdy, but so darn likable), the Vegan Stand operator(!)carries a torch for Archie even creating perverse artistic renderings between them. But, most of the film shows Archie escaping endless threats by government suits who wish to commandeer the vehicle so that his blood car can be studied and mass-produced for the marketplace since gas runs 33 dollars a gallon(..this warped comedy is set slightly in the future). Most of the comedy is dead pan using skinny, weakly Archie, who bores his poor students to tears reading from novels that mean nothing to their rather young ears, as this vessel of parody..he's often "showcased" in various sexual scenarios with Denise who may be "more" than she appears(hint:during their first sexual confrontation, she has him wearing his own shirt over his face). Chlumsky, who doesn't appear in that many film since her childhood days, is just adorable yet carries this wanton sexual desire for Archie that culminates in a less-than-enthusiastic(..for her, it is, but Archie, no)sexual episode on his bed(..not elaborated, so sorry for those who are curious about what Chlumsky might look like naked). Also, a running series of gore-gags concern the government agents who always seem to foul up either capturing Archie or his car, often ending up as fuel. For the most part, this film isn't for the easily offended, because most of the "funny" jokes and gags are really rather in poor taste. For instance, what the government agents do with all those who know Archie, so that they can erase his existence. SPOILER Or, the final gag where Archie, now perhaps President of the USA, holding an infant, does something with the newborn so that good ole America could still run those cars. While, the dialogue doesn't always tickle the funny-bone, there's enough outrageous moments of grue and blood splatter, along with the equal doses of wicked gags to sustain interest. But, this will undoubtedly ruffle a few feathers.
I see this movie was perceived quite controversially, people seem to either enjoy it or hate it for what it is. I personally had great fun watching this movie.From the moment I knew about the title, I went like 'wow what an idea'. Surprisingly, unlike many good movie concepts, this one was actually perfected into details of context.The main character, is creature-loving vegan, whose job is to teach little kids in elementary school. When he happens to perfect a car that runs on alternative fuel - human blood - in world where gas is so expensive that driving car becomes a dream, and actually riding a car gives you god-like feeling and appreciation of women... the battle finally begins - inside him. It's a battle of respect towards life - and desire for kinky sex with girl that is very interested in his as a man who operates a car.The combo of violence and cynic humor is hysterical. (like when he hunts for squirrels, and cries for them). Great horror for those who don't mind seeing some gore, but avoid paranormal titles. This one doesn't include any. Although I think the movie takes rapid move towards end (scene where he eats meat till end) which feels like the budget is just exceeded and the movie has to 'end too early' while I think it has built material for longer plot (even a sequel) - I recommend it to everyone who has mood for crazy story and unconventional original movie.
Thats right, avoid this movie at all costs. Not only is it possibly the worst movie i have ever seen, it's the most disappointing. Oh, and it's the worst movie i've seen...so....'Blood Car' sounds like the shitty movie I would view out of boredom or just sheer intrigue, but from the word go, i was lost. Thanks to its award-winning acting and really well rounded characters, this heightens the words "pure shite" to another level. Badly written (the narrator WTF?) badly acted (Everyone in this movie is under 25, including the FBI Agents!!?) and poorly executed, Blood Car ranks high on my list of regrettable titles I've watched. And if you don't believe me, just wait for the stellar acting inside the car, once the main character has realized what he's done. Crap-o-la!
