Romeo and Juliet go Rock?n?Roll in this insane scificomedy-gore B-movie about true love, motorcycle daredevils, and an invasion of face-sucking aliens. Plus: a very inspiring and unexpected Lovecraft-touch! This French take on Bayou hospitality and fight for survival is a wildly imaginative fantasy flick, written and directed by Didier Poiraud and his brother Thierry, a pair of comic artists who adapted the story from their own work. And it is crazier than any Tarantino.
It?s party time in Skotlett City, a grimy, shabby village in the middle of swampland. But then suddenly the star of the day, the good-looking acrobat James Bataille, screws up and crashes embarrassingly in the middle of Sam Paradiso, the local bar run by the less than scrupulous Bosco. Quickly finding himself accused of a terrorist act, Bataille is slapped with a sentence of 133 years of hard labour. A year later, his love for the town?s young singer Concia (Bosco?s daughter) drives him to break out. He returns to Skotlett at the same time that the lecherous impresario Allan Chiasse arrives in town?and quickly turns a leering eye to the lovely Concia. The town?s eagerly awaited Cow Pie Festival is about to take place, but that?s not the only thing about to happen. There?s also the arrival of a horde of flying, tentacled extraterrestrial creatures with a thirst for splashing, spurting blood.
The very quintessence of the bizarre, deranged movie, a French farce informed by Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Jaws, David Lynch and the Coen Brothers, Planet of the Apes and the fixtures of the grand era of Z-movies (think B-movies, only with lower budgets and crazier ideas), the cinematic oddity that is Atomik Circus is less a radioactive sideshow than demented fun park devoted to the infernal, the absurd and the brilliantly stupid?check out the scene with the dog that sings when the pus ball on its paw is squeezed. After Blueberry, Atomik Circus is yet another French film to create panic among its investors and general confusion in the movie-going public. Imagine this?a Z-movie that cost tens of millions of euros, with a super-polished look (not far from Jeunet?s Amelie), with pop star Vanessa Paradis making her return to film alongside Beno?t Poelvoorde (Man Bites Dog, Podium) and Jean-Pierre Marielle. The result is a chaotic, rock ?n? roll kaleidoscope bursting with creative freedom and contagious laughs, like you might not have seen in some time!
