Midnight Movies: From the Margin to the Mainstream

Richmond Hill

Only scratched surfaces... A potentially fascinating topic is largely neutered by being merely a succession of talking heads edited into attention deficit chunks (and why that those swirling backgrounds, lest we look away for a second?) revealing little more than is known elsewhere. A missed opportunity.

L'histoire et l'influence des "midnight movies", grand phénomène underground des années 1970 aux Etats-Unis : un sujet en or ! Bien sûr, on se délecte des extraits de films et des interventions de grands cinéastes : Jodorowski, Lynch, Romero, Waters… Mais pourquoi cette forme trop standard et linéaire, "à l'américaine" justement ? Pourquoi ce montage bien trop speed, qui ne respire pas ? Le résultat est fort inégal…

Pour les amoureux du CINEMA BIS. Passionnant.

00.00 or 24.00 or 12pm. Anyway the perfect time to become a cult movie!

Loved it but I didn't understand one word Jodorowsky said.

Not bad but I was a little disappointed by this one.
