But not for the faint-hearted. KILLER JOE, the new William Friedkin movie is one of the blackest black comedies you will ever see. But don't expect to guffaw at well-placed one-liners. Rather, expect to be so appalled that you can't help but laugh. I don't shock too easily and I'm not amused by gratuitous gore a la Robert Rodriguez, Tarantino etc. This trumps that bigtime and this movie isn't rated NC-17 for nuthin'.
So don't take your kids. Anyone who drags their kids to this should have their kids removed to protective custody. All the cast are excellent, but these performances will never be nominated for no Oscar -- I don't think!! Kirby McDaniel MovieArt Original Film Posters P.O.
