THE DRILLER KILLER (1979) - ♦♦♦♦♦

Directed by - Abel Ferrara

Written by - Nicholas St. John

Starring - Abel Ferrara, Carolyn Marz, Baybi Day

"An underground artist who shares an apartment with two other girls has to endure all sorts of problems and struggles, which result in all night rampages with a power drill. Ferrara’s film is mostly regarded as a cheap slasher film and punished for starting a trend of films unloved by critics. However, this evaluation is completely unfair. His vision of mental disintegration and urban degradation is a major specimen of a stylish underground and amateurish cinema that coincides with the American New Wave and Warhol’s pop art films."
