BadTv: Bad Cinema

What would be cinema without bad cinema. I won't write about Kids, mainly because I've already comment about this. I will describe three 'mainstream' bad movies, which are lighter tha Kids.

Fight Club
His name was Tyler Durden and he had a plot to destroy society, but it turned out that he is only an imagination of one white collar worker. What is bad about movie? There is sex, violence, drugs, exloitation, and destructive ideas. But watching the movie, viewer feels that those bad things are good, are something that makes you feel alive.

Clockwork Orange
Poor, in my opinion, adaptation of the book. Young Alex and his gang kills, rapes and steals. In prison he is put into therapy after which he isn't able to act violently. His life becomes living hell, but finally he gets back to his dirty deeds. Clockwork Orange is antiutopic and tries to show modern society, but also life of young person which lost its morality.

Sin City
In the city of sin everyone is a sinner. Killers, dirty police, hookers with guns, pedophiles, corrupted government and religion officials. Movie shows stories of individuals who are only a little less bad than the others, who fight to survive. Main characters are presented as good bandits with which we can eassily connect.

What gives us bad cinema? Something different than boring hollywoodhappyending stories, something that will disturb you, and make you think about the world around you.

Comment #5 Have you got a spare cig mate?

After my pro smoking note on my own blog I actually have to agree with you - dirty habit. That it is killing us we knew before. But is it really cool and independent to stink like sh and have taste like sh in mouth. And the money, 4 packs of cigs and I could go to the rock show. At the moments like right now I'm thinking about quiting. But I robably won't. At least now. But I hope, someday...Smoking is so bad...
