Sunchoke: desperate ravings of lunacy
3 November 2016
A confused and desperate attempt at an art house or psychological thriller. A complete mess. My only reaction is: GET ME OUT OF HERE..as I watched the ravings and lunacy of the writer and director come to life on the screen. This movie would have been better off remaining in someone's fevered dreams than shown on the public stage. I understood what was going on but found it trite, pretentious and more than a little outre. If shock was the aim, it did not succeed.

The gore was out of control in a way that did not suit the subject. Also what's with the videotapes of her childhood and the "memories" of her breech birth. I suggest you watch Dogtooth instead--a deep and commanding approach to similar subjects
