this movie be so bad and you almost feel contaminate by it . actually and there be a strong sense of relief when it over and relief that you can now put the cassette back in the rewinder and rush this back to the video rental store before it contaminate the rest of your video collection . i jokingly suggest when we rent it that it look like the kind of film where william hurt would phone in his performance . i mean that he would not be try very hard . but lo and behold and in a huge number of scene in this film and bill hurt be actually on the phone . our realization of this irony be the only pleasure we derive from this confuse mess . the cinematography and edit be murky and befuddle and the story be chaotic and and the soundtrack be barely audible . there be a very slight resemblance to fall down and but that film have a boldly disturbing story line and great writing and acting and and an engaging soundtrack . contaminate man be just some kind of broken down old european tourist trap and and watch it be like drive along some unfamiliar back road in an unknown country where you do not speak the language in a steady rain just after nightfall a the windshield keep fog up . you get the picture . don not get this one .
