Description

This horror film (that's not a werewolf movie) starring Albert Finney is a strange mix of 1970s New York cop movie and New Age fetishization of Native Americans, with some commentary on urban renewal. Parts of it are compelling, parts of it are cringe, and all of it is grimey.

Sure, the 1980s were a great decade for film. But have you seen all of them? No, neither has Mary. In fact, some pretty big films passed her by, what with being in kindergarten at the time: A Nightmare on Elm Street, Moonstruck, My Neighbor Totoro... So it's time to fix that. Artwork, opening and closing themes by Dennis Lingg Produced and edited by Mary Jones
