Wondering if you should watch it?
So was I. And then I did. A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night is set in an Iranian ghost town where a lonely vampire stalks a town filled with drugs, prostitutes, and unsavoury inhabitants. Starring Sheila Vand, Arash Marandi and written and directed by Ana Lily Amirpour (who has since directed The Bad Batch) this black and white movie (with English Subtitles) is very artistically done.
Like you, I’ve seen numerous reviews and posts about this film. And as I’m seriously looking forward to The Bad Batch I wanted to see what this director could do.
It sort of felt like what would happen if Marlon Brando did a 90’s movie shot like a 60’s art flick. With possibly the best vampire feeding noises I’ve heard in a long while. There were some creepy bits but nothing particularly scary. The story was perhaps a little loose and there were definitely some scenes where I had no frikkin idea what was going on. It was watchable. Although it did seem to go on for an awfully long time.
A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night Review Conclusion
Well, I don’t think I’ll watch it again, once was probably enough, but hey, you never know. – A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night was very arty and quite slow, sometimes sliding into an 80’s music video style. But it hasn’t put me off watching The Bad Batch, if anything I want to watch it more.
