Straw Dogs

Finally saw this just now (thank you, The Miz). Wow, absolutely blown away.

From beginning to end, I was like, "wow this movie is great". Not one "boring" part in the entire thing. Fucking great.

Dustin Hoffman is amazing in it too. I DUNNO JUST A GREAT MOVIE.

Basically, it's about a guy who moves to England to escape the violence in America but once he's there, he and his wife are harrassed by a group of locals who they hired to fix up their new house. The guy, who is passive, ignores it, but they keep fucking with him and pushing him to the edge until he finally lashes out.

It's banned in the UK for its controversial content and violence. The entire movie reminded me a lot of A Clockwork Orange in a lot of ways. They even premiered like 10 days within each other. Also, Edward Norton is going to star in a remake of it called Fear Itself some time in 2005.

Just good shit.
