VHS Movie Reviews of Crash

Movie Review: always excellent
Summary: 5 Stars

I am always pleased with the efficiency of Amazon to deliver a product in a timely manner. Have never had a complaint.

Movie Review: Brilliant. a shame the title was stolen for such a trivial "Oscar Movie"
Summary: 5 Stars

If you are offended by this film, I guess you're the kind to be offended by my writing (myspace.com/themercyclock) as I was told by a "mentor for a week" contrived-sell-out-writer Jonthan Maberry told me he did not want his name associated with my new novel "The Mercy Clock" but it's films like this that someone could write a review about but it's not what it's about... in the sense that the screenplay for this is not the story, the story is between the lines... the story we watch in this is just there to use as a tool to portray something else that's brilliant... what it really is about, and if you don't get it, you're not supposed to, You're probably the kind that would get scared more easily by Stephen King's new work than Bret Eaton Ellis' last. I hate to say things like film and literature are "important" because all they are are words and images... we don't feel them as they don't feel... are reaction to it is what feels, but if I were to say a film is important this would be one of them.

Movie Review: Crash - original version
Summary: 5 Stars

Very different story line and film, pretty far out there on the fringe and "edgy". You may also want to buy the book. With either, make sure it's not the more recent movie with the same title.

Movie Review: auto erotica
Summary: 2 Stars

I can only wonder how many folks out there do get off on auto wrecks and the resulting injuries. The movie itself is outlandish and somewhat annoying with the whispering/mumbling dialouge.

The movie lost credibility when we see Vaughn taking photo's at a fresh crash scence without any obstruction whatsoever. No way this would be allowed to happen.

Very surprised to see Holly Hunter play such a role. Sader and Unger pull it off very well.

Movie Review: David Cronenberg's Crash
Summary: 4 Stars

David Cronenberg's Crash is an erotic masterpiece of sex and car crashes. It begs plenty of questions into sexual relationships and actions. From J.G. Ballard's controversial novel comes one of the best films of the year. Definitely worth a watch.

The DVD includes a Cronenberg commentary and a few features.

Highly recommended.

Summary of Crash

Adapted from the controversial novel by J.G. Ballard, Crash will either repel or amaze you, with little or no room for a neutral reaction. The film is perfectly matched to the artistic and intellectual proclivities of director David Cronenberg, who has used the inspiration of Ballard's novel to create what critic Roger Ebert has described as "a dissection of the mechanics of pornography." Filmed with a metallic color scheme and a dominant tone of emotional detachment, the story focuses on a close-knit group of people who have developed a sexual fetish around the collision of automobiles. They use cars as a tool of arousal, in which orgasm is directly connected to death-defying temptations of fate at high speeds. Ballard wrote his book to illustrate the connections between sex and technology--the ultimate postmodern melding of flesh and machine--and Cronenberg takes this theme to the final frontier of sexual expression. Holly Hunter, James Spader, and Deborah Unger are utterly fearless in roles that few actors would dare to play, and their surrender to Cronenberg's vision makes Crash an utterly unique and challenging film experience. It's rated NC-17, so don't say you weren't warned! --Jeff Shannon
