Avalon

[Drunk Monk]

Directed by Ghost in the Shell director Mamoru Oshii, with a Polish cast. It's about an immersive video/audio/sensory game where a lot of stuff blows up and you ponder existentialism. Strange use of filters make it oppressively dingy at first. There are some surreal bits, like what's up with that dog anyway? There's some good mechatech-destructo tanks. Gratuitous machine gunning, explosions, gristle eating and classical opera. No sword fights. Not sure if I liked it actually. I might have liked it better in its original language with subtitles instead of bad dubbing. But I started it before KFTC20 and finished it after, so there was a serious break in continuity.
