Cruising 2020

About This Movie

Cruising 2020 is an interesting take on Friedkin's original. It captures that same gritty, unsettling atmosphere, but it feels different, you know? The pacing is slower, allowing the tension to build in a more modern context. There's something about the performances that feels raw and unfiltered, like the actors are really diving deep into their characters. The film explores themes of identity, sexuality, and the dark corners of the human psyche, which can get pretty heavy at times. It definitely leans into practical effects to create that visceral experience. It's not just a remake; it’s like a reinterpretation that plays with the legacy of the original while trying to carve out its own identity. Definitely worth a look for collectors who appreciate nuanced storytelling.
