Viewing Notes
The Greasy Strangler has garnered a lot of buzz on the festival circuit. A lot of that buzz boils down to, “whoa, Frodo produced a disgusting grindhouse gross-out!” That’s good, of course. But, considering that it seems to be dividing genre festival-goers – people who typically have iron stomachs and an affinity for weirdness – it would seem that disgusting does not necessarily equal good. Why the love / hate? Is it a – you either get it or you don’t – type of film? If only there were a way to find out! Oh wait – it’s showing at Fantastic Fest 2016 in Austin, TX! And I’m in Chicago with a screener! (not quite the same, but serviceable)
