Watching this at a Quality Inn near Santa Claus, Indiana after visiting Holiday World, Kings Island, and Cedar Point over the course of four days was the perfect vacation capstone. Basically this is a Dirty Harry riff with rollercoasters, so it was impossible for me to dislike. Its opening bit of destruction is absolutely hysterical even if the rest of the movie stumbles into a weirdly lethargic pace. Be on the lookout for the band Sparks performing 'Big Boy' over and over for what feels like eons.

Anyone ever heard of this one?

(Hint: it's really good)

Pierce the veil.

Assimilation is a threat to the binding ties of community, while music is a precious, transcendent commodity.

This is a film about fighting for what is yours. Keeping it close and keeping it safe and being able to share it with the people you love.

A siege horror period drama musical. Drips off the screen with sex and style and warm blood. Generational.
