The Oxblow Incident’s Film Reviews

15 Films have been rated or reviewed by The Oxblow Incident.

Hardcore Henry (2015): Like watching a video game trailer that goes for 96 minutes...
Annihilation (2018): Recommended to all lovers of sci–fi, though if you're interested in the ecological themes and crave more depth, detail and imagination, skip this and read the book.
Twin Peaks (TV Series) (Twin Peaks: A Limited Event Series, Twin Peaks: The Return) (2017): Unimaginably weird, the most uncompromising and unlikely TV since BERLIN ALEXANDERPLATZ.
Whisperer in Darkness, The (2011): Made with craft.
Skeptics - Sheen of Gold (2013): Their infamous AFFCO music video is actually the least interesting thing about this band and their catalogue of profoundly moving post–punk experiments!
Open Season (2006): Hipsters take note: great soundtrack by Paul Westerberg!
Fifty Shades of Grey (2015): Very grey, and quite irrelevant to the experiences and views of actual BDSM practitioners – and everyone else, ever?!
Leviathan (2013): Bleak gothic masterpiece is a spiritual relative of MOBY DICK and lives up to it's name – translatable as a twisted sea–monster of undefinable shape.
Kenneth Anger's Magick Lantern Cycle Vol. 3 (1949-1965): Scorpio Rising is a surprisingly joyful montage of religious, fetishist and motorcyclist imagery with a rockabilly score full of beloved 50's dance hits! Not to downplay the politics, but this would make a fun party backdrop.
Grendel Grendel Grendel (1981): Delightful cult animation provides a subversive re–telling of JRR Tolkien's favourite Scandi epic!
Tex (1982): Sublime and quite directionless love–letter to the Western genre. Horse–lovers take note.
Pumping Iron II - The Women (1984): Agonisingly fun.
Dragon's World - A Fantasy Made Real (2004): Fascinatingly terrible CGI renders this early addition to the "mockumentary" genre all the more hilariously entertaining! A must for all fantasy enthusiasts.
Gatekeepers, The (2012): A terrifying antidote to watered–down and inaccurate media coverage.
Mistaken for Strangers (2013): Brilliant example of amateur film making, with engaging and interesting subjects.
