- Synopsis
- What starts off as a saccharine kids melodrama quickly, unexpectedly and gloriously flies off the rails with lots of heads flying off once love enters into the picture. Director Kenichi Ugana – whose WILD VIRGINS that the BIFFF already wanted to screen in 2020, but y’all know what happened that year – reinterprets Joy Division’s gloomy post-punk classic “Love Will Tear Us Apart” quite literally, as in shredding folks into pieces in the name of love. And it’s not simply a fantastic midnight movie. It also contains possibly the two greatest scenes involving sushi and belly tattoos in film history. We’re not kidding…
