Directed by Antonio Tibaldi
My rating: 2.5 stars out of 4
IMDb
(Showtime)
Exceptionally unpleasant Texas trailer park melodrama about a teenage boy forced into an incestuous relationship by his impotent Vietnam vet father. It's laced with kinky sex and boring teenage romance problems between pretty boy Phillippe and his girlfriend. Despite everything going against it, the second half actually becomes somewhat intriguing, mainly due to a complicated back story that is gradually revealed. I can only imagine what this could have been in the hands of a more capable director, say David Lynch, who has obviously influenced Tibaldi.
