Viewing Notes

Forgot about this movie until Weinberg blurbed the other day noting it was written by Simon Barrett. Had it on my watchlist but it hasn’t been available to watch and I don’t think I’ve ever seen the dvd anywhere. But it’s on Kanopy now so I dug in. It’s good! I like the premise of bandits hiding out and shit gets weird. Fun to see Michael Shannon here.
