Viewing Notes
I remember this movie leaving an impression on me as a middle schooler. The opening scene is a lot more gruesome than I remembered, but then they don’t really carry that same level of violence throughout the rest of the movie; mainly it’s implied after that. A few more sparse interjections of that level of violence throughout would’ve done better for the film.
