I am 23 years old and am rapidly becoming extremely bored with modern Hollywood.
I am not a film student, I only came across this because I was going through the top 250 on here and was amazed at the year of this one, so I picked up the DVD.
I would love a time machine to see something like this being made.
It transcends time, and one could argue it has been "borrowed" from throughout this past century.
Well worth a few slow moments, the plot style is years ahead of its time. Its quite graphic in some areas too, this also came as a huge surprise to me.
I can't even explain the feeling you get watching this, its like the deep dark secret of Alfred Hitchcock, John Carpenter and Tim Burton all rolled into one. As directors they've all made history in their own right, but this movie just reminds me of them in some way, its tough to explain.
My version featured colorization of certain scenes, but it was done with a semi transparent color tint frame I am not sure the original featured this...
Reguardless, if you have some patience and are in the mood for something a little different, try this. You will not soon forget it.
10/10 without question.
