Curfew
Dir: Gary Winick
1989
***
Gary Winick's notorious Curfew is a pretty disturbing horror/thriller from the late 80's that was unsurprisingly the target of the strict censorship board at the time. The acting/dialogue/hair are all pretty awful but the main idea is pretty good, so good in fact that a certain German film director seems to have re-made it twice. Am I really the only one who thinks that this film has to have been the inspiration to Michael Haneke's Funny Games?
