Street to Table (2022)
Disgustingly delicious!
Good movie! Definitely not your typical dinner and a movie night fare. This little-known gem is a dark and disgustingly funny concoction served a la carte. Though it definitely won't whet your appetite for fine dining, it will make you think twice about eating out. Veteran character actor James Handy turns out a great performance as a half-crazed homeless veteran with a sly penchant for blackmail. Dan Menke is also excellent as the eccentric sous-chef with a serious bone to pick. You'll never look at food the same way again. Well-written and funny plot. It might make your stomach turn, but the only thing you'll be spewing is laughter!
Thru: The Hereafter Remains Unknown (2017)
Good No-frills, Low-budget Indie.
This movie is definitely no blockbuster. But good for what it is: a no-frills, low-budget indie. The setting is gritty and dark. The characters are troubled and funny.
And, in today's insanely violent day and age, the plot and bloody finale are all-too familiar. Though not a cinematic tour de force by any means, the director takes a decent stab at addressing serious issues. James Handy's performance as the gun-toting bar owner brings an added flair of dark humor to the film which gives one the sense of watching a black comedy. Though it's a little too talky at times, the action scenes and surprise ending tend to balance it out. Will this movie win any Oscars? Probably not. But, at the very least, it makes an interesting statement on society's current--and oftentimes sad--state of affairs.
