The Neon People is a raw dive into the subterranean world beneath Las Vegas, where the homeless carve out a life in the shadow of the Strip. It’s not glamorous, but it’s real, you know? The pacing meanders like the tunnels themselves, allowing the viewer to absorb the atmosphere, the smells, and the sounds. It’s a documentary that doesn’t shy away from the tough realities but also captures fleeting moments of humanity and resilience. The visuals are gritty, with practical effects that highlight the stark contrast between glitzy casinos above and the stark existence below. It’s haunting, yet it has these odd moments of beauty that linger. The stories told are distinctive, painting a portrait of a community often overlooked, making you think about the price of that neon light.
