Dead End (2003)

This movie. This dang movie.
This is a film where nothing happens for almost an hour and a half. Its a movie where the last scene undermines the rest of the movie in an unfulfilling way. Its a movie where no one can act and everything everyone says is ridiculous and hilarious. This movie is the quintessential "Hey its the 21st century, lets make a Modern B-Movie!" movie. Its a movie where everything is stilted because of the creative Powers That Be trying to recreate an aesthetic that its almost impossible to emulate today.
Thats why I love it. Its not a good movie by any means, but it tries to hard to be bad that its flailing limbs are entertaining. Ray Wise is legitimately hilarious in it.
