Rubber




Yes it is a killer tire movie. Yes it is from the director of the Flat Eric/puppet Levi adverts. Yes i don't think there is anything else out there quite like this. Yes i love it and it is cemented in my top five films for the year end.

RUBBER opens with a hilarious intoductory speech from one of the principle characters, the town sheriff, who explains that what you are about to see happens for no reason and needs no reason. What follows is a meta-feature that is more than flavoured with ingredients from Spike Jonze and Michael Gondry. A car tire rises out of the dump and begins to roll through an unnamed desert. As he encounters obsticles, bottles, insects, humans, the tire becomes increasingly aggressive and develops psychic powers using them to explode heads.

The whole film is rich in silliness and cool with style. Its strength comes from taking a serious art approach rather than spoofery with slick photography and sonorous sound design which results in a peculiar and brilliant little oddity.

Full on hard on and ejaculation!
