Liquid Sky (1982)
Description
This week, the Crit Club is on quite the drug-filled, electroclash journey as we watch the 1982 nihilistic sci fi overdose called Liquid Sky. What would it be like if orgasms attracted aliens? How would one break into the punk fashion world? What would it be like to live so close to the Empire State Building in the '80s? How much shrimp is too much? Liquid Sky inspired us to answer some of these questions and much more. So much more.
Join us next week for an Angela Pick! We’re going back to Japan for a family drama with 2014’s Seven Weeks from director Nobuhiko Obayashi. Watch along with us!
You can follow the whole of our podcast, aided by this helpful spreadsheet which documents all the scores we gave to the movies we have watched.
