Crime Zone



Crime Zone - in which the class system is taken deadly seriously, but one cute guy has the courage to stand and do some crime.Okay, so, in the dystopian future, there is a strict class system, and some vague sort of points system, and men who work shitty jobs can be promoted to a higher level in society based on their performance at work. There are also women who work as prostitutes, and not really anywhere else (a few pervert cops), so I think this is all they can do in the future. And the society appears to be a closed municipality, but there is talk of another, better place. So, the main guy is a normal, white guy, level 0, or 0.5, and he works at a cryogenic freezing lab, where the service is purchased by wealthy, older folks, and they freeze themselves with their valuables. They are not in Fry tubes, they are like, hanging around like dry cleaning. So, Guy meets a nice prostitute woman while his gang-friends are maybe working up to raping her, because she is beating them at billiards. They fall in love! So, then they are approached by David Carradine, who offers them enough money to leave town, if they commit a robbery for him. Light crime, no homicide - seems easy enough.
      But no, they are caught red-handed, because Carradine set them up! Turns out, he is the police chief, and there is not enough crime to justify his team, I guess. Even though everything looks really shitty. Plus, this isn't even a surprise, as it was in the synopsis on the back of the box. Whatever. So, Carradine lets the two get away, they sneak onto a helicopter with their older friend, who used to be in the military. They get away, to this other city, that is supposed to be better, but when they get there, David Carradine is also the police chief there, and the city is empty and destroyed, and he's like, well, good luck, I told you it wasn't worth the trip. And then he just leaves them there. That's the ending.

Death Wish

Death Wish (1974) - in which the justice system fails a man who lost his family, and he goes off the rails in finding personal justice. I mean vengeance. Charles Bronson plays Paul Kersey, a husband and father and architect, who has a nice NYC life. One day, near the beginning of the movie, Paul's wife is murdered and his daughter is raped into a catatonic state, from which she will not likely recover. Sexist. Anyways, Paul is destroyed, so his boss sends him out to New Mexico, or another lawless state, for a 3 month long project. Paul does some recovering while he is out there, and is befriended by his big money client, with a big hat and big guns. Upon arriving back in NYC, Paul is disheartened to find his daughter in terrible condition, and his son-in-law coping poorly. There have also been no arrests in his wife's murder, as the police are very busy with a crime spree related to gang violence. Paul is a really sympathetic guy, and his pain is visible, and very real. So,...

Deadpool 2 - in which Deadpool cries like a bitch, and I do not. First of all, Deadpool is working, and then he goes home to celebrate an anniversary with his girlfriend, who tells him they can try to have a baby now.

There is no sex scene, and then the two of them are just chilling, and some guy Deadpool neglected to murder comes and kills his girlfriend. Deadpool does not take it well, and even though he like, immediately got revenge on the guy who shot her. Ultimately, he feels both responsible and sad, so he tries to kill himself. It doesn't take.

Raw

Raw - in which France has the grossest veterinary school imaginable, and vegetarianism is the thinking woman's solution to the broken Greek system. Some skinny girl goes to the same veterinary school her older sister is currently attending, and her bitch sister doesn't even help her move in to the dorm she is sharing with a guy. Albeit a gay guy, but I'm assuming not all of the men in this coed dorm are gay. The first night the hazing begins, the freshmen are herded out of their rooms by threat of violence, and all of their mattresses are thrown onto the front lawn. It takes a surreal turn into gross-cinema discomfort at the rave they are all taken to and our tiny protagonist runs into her mean sister and is peer pressured into taking some club drugs. Things are just starting to get weird. Some kind of creepy things are happening, but it mostly just reminds me of the lonely horror of my college experience, except I wasn't peer pressured into eating a rabbit kidney, ...
