The same director of "Kids" did an even WORSE movie called "Gummo" where most of the actors look like the banjo player from "Deliverence."
Thanks for warning me about that one. Many of these movies, like Plan 9 from Outer Space, are kind of fun to watch. Kids was just depressing as h*ll. I want to steer WAY clear of Gummo.
Wabbits are qweeurs!
Actually, Gummo was directed by Harmonie Korine, the SCREENWRITER of Kids, and it is also my choice for the worst film of the nineties, a thoroughly inept geek show lacking any sort of genuine intelligence or emotion . Kids was directed by Larry Clark, who has made other movies in the same vein such as Ken Park and Bully. He means well, but he lacks the sort of genuine sympathy for his characters that made Paul Morrissey's films so compelling, and they wind up being sleazily voyeuristic instead of thoughtful.
