Review of Safe

Safe (1995)
2/10
New age Enviro Propaganda BS film
8 April 2006
Warning: Spoilers
I actually had to cringe when I checked "Contains Spoilers" because there is nothing that I or anyone else can spoil. This film starts nowhere, goes nowhere, and ends nowhere.

Apparently the only reason for its existence is to warn people that evil 20th century technology will kill us. Never mind that raw nature likely will kill you much sooner. Never mind that pollen, plants and dust from the ground can do you more harm than any alleged fumes from new furniture. Never mind that power line EM fields have been proved harmless.

As to the cult, I'm left wondering what the point is. Was he for or against new age pop psychology BS? I don't know and please don't bother telling me.

The only similar movies to this one that I've had the misfortune to see were Left Behind I and II. Equally terrible acting, equally wooden characters, equally bad script and direction.

If you want to kill a few brain cells, go ahead and see this stinker or better yet, why not go on an all-night drinking binge: at least that would be more fun.
