ENTER THE VOID



Enter the Void is the latest release of French film director Gaspar Noe, he calls it a "psychedelic melodrama". The film is about an American drug dealer named Oscar who's killed, but stays on Earth as a spirit to watch over his younger sister. I haven't heard anything about this movie and after a little researching it was clear why - the movie hasn't been released in the US. It's been floating around the international film circuit for over a year and got mixed reviews due to its graphic nature. But needless to say it looks visually incredible and I hope to see it soon. What Trinity Films had to say about the movie will be a better explanation...

"ENTER THE VOID is the highly anticipated new film from Gaspar Noé (I STAND ALONE, IRREVERSIBLE), the former enfant terrible of French Cinema. A filmmaker of a singular passion and cinematic vision that continues to challenge us, Noé is one of the most exciting directors working today. The provocative director’s latest work is a visually arresting and audacious ‘psychedelic melodrama’ of familial ties, inner consciousness and the circle of life played out against the neon-soaked backdrop of Tokyo’s nightscape of strip bars, clubs, and seedy hangouts, all lit up like a pinball machine."
