HIM

About This Movie

So, 'HIM' is this intriguing little piece, really. The film takes you through these waves of emotional intensity, exploring love's darker sides, all while the Alberta landscape looms in the background. It’s shot with a kind of rawness that makes you feel the characters’ struggles intimately. The pacing can be a bit erratic, which some might find off-putting, but I think it adds to the overall experimental vibe. Plus, the practical effects have this understated quality that complements the narrative without overwhelming it. The performances are often haunting, like the actors are channeling something deeply personal. It’s definitely not your run-of-the-mill drama, and that’s what sets it apart.

This film has seen limited releases, making it somewhat of a rarity among collectors. Its obscure status and the lack of widely known information about the director add to its mystique. There have been a few obscure VHS and DVD formats released, but finding a good-quality copy can be quite a challenge. Collector interest seems to be growing, especially among those who appreciate experimental cinema.
