Killer Joe (2011): Texas Trailer Trashy

The 2011 film Killer Joe is a delightful Texas trailer trashy look at the downtrodden denizens of a small Texas town.

Mikes Film Talk

RAMPAGE - William Friedkin - 1987 - ★★★★
---
The excellence of a dense and fascinating story about the misdeeds of a serial killer, although sometimes a little too elliptical, is just as captivating as the talented cinematography, which evokes the style of “The Exorcist” in terms of both atmosphere and visual approach. Undoubtedly Friedkin's best work.

LE SANG DU CHÂTIMENT - William Friedkin - 1987 - ★★★★
---
L’excellence d’un récit dense et passionnant autour des méfaits d’un tueur en série, quoique parfois un peu trop elliptique, captive tout autant qu’1 talentueuse cinématographie qui évoque le style de “l’Exorciste” tant du point de vue de l’ambiance que de l’approche visuelle. Le meilleur de Friedkin, sans conteste.

This is a highly geeky riff, but it must be said that William Friedkin's speech patterns and mannerisms are utterly hilarious to me . Here's a guy who absolutely HAS to have confidence in every declaration, even the minor ones. Like, homeboy has to win EVERY argument. Dammit, I would have loved to interview this guy. Brilliant filmmaker obvs, but a FABULOUS talker. Unintentionally charismatic.
