Gummo 2

About This Movie

Gummo 2 feels like a wild collage, a patchwork of skits that draw from the original's chaotic spirit. The tone is quirky, sometimes jarring, with an atmosphere that oscillates between absurdity and discomfort. You can sense the influence of those online collaborators—each segment carries a distinct flavor, yet they all echo that sense of dislocation found in Gummo. The pacing varies, some parts drag while others hit fast and hard. Practical effects? Nothing extravagant, but they add a raw edge that feels fitting. Performances are all over the map, some genuine, others a bit forced, but that’s kind of the charm too. This film definitely carves its own path, even if it leaves you a little bewildered.
