Super Dark Times2017

The grey gathering gloom that hangs over Super Dark Times seeps into your bones.

Damn, forgot what it was like to be a teenager in uncontrolled environments when bad things had the potential to escalate. And the characters, one in particular, certainly captured that vibe of a personality at a crossroad. Forgot about those kids that you’d hang out with but could make you feel uneasy -most of ‘em turn out alright :/ A good little sleeper hit (I don’t know if it’s a sleeper or not, maybe people know about it). Captured that 90s vibe fairly well too, as well as River’s Edge vibes. Also, it’s dark.

It’s a film that remembers how awful it can be to grow up, and that even those who survive it usually don’t get out without taking a few scars.
