Under hypnotic neon lights of Las Vegas a serial murderer roams the streets doing their cleaning particular what he thinks is the scum that infects the world. This could be the terrible recent history of a modern Jack the Ripper. "
"nutbag" was the directorial debut of Nick Palumbo , author of the brutal and interesting September pieces Murder (2004) , acclaimed horror independent movie released by Lionsgate in the U.S. cut version ( here we got the uncut European version of Universal Studios ) that revolutionized the genre of psychopaths giving a personal approach to the mind of the murderer, with the first version even more direct person in films like Henry: Portrait of a murderer (1986) .
In this first film can be taken as a seminal and cheaper version of that September pieces Murder (2004) , where they are even more pronounced phobias racial and misogynistic of the protagonist, a man completely sick and marked by a complicated childhood. With the sole company of a tarantula, with which honest and reveals the most brilliant aspects of his personality, the murderer ( completely anonymous, do not know his name ) clean the streets of Las Vegas for what he thinks is cancer in the world, completely raving.
We are seeing a lot of his thoughts and motives to kill, there's even a scene where he walks to his car which commenting De Niro in Taxi Driver (1976) all his hatred certain social sectors. Is unavoidable, as in September Murder pieces (2004) , citing Maniac (1980) main reference, and those who branded misogynistic ( massacred in criticism ) film Lustig is because they saw the work of Palumbo.
The psychopath is portrayed as brutal, honest and without regard as a deranged person with a deep hatred of the female gender. Violence and nudity is very graphic and again this is a hard film as well handled the character and everything that surrounds him: his macabre apartment, full of dark walks comments and all the crimes committed, claustrophobic and ill. The end result is a very good job if we take into account budgetary constraints, and although Palumbo is retaliate in the upper pieces September Murder (2004) , this think makes debut the director and a great commitment to the future for any independent producer ( know it will be difficult for him to make movies as radical in a large ).
now is about to launch Corpse (2010) and prepares The last gas station (2011) , so we will look at this promising director. -----------------------------------
