Review: ‘The Old Man: The Movie’ Is Stop-Motion Excellence From Estonia
In the late ‘90’s, a short cartoon called The Spirit of Christmas was traded from hand to hand, dubbed onto countless VHS tapes as people discovered the foul-mouthed, crudely animated world of South Park. In the early ‘80’s, Sam Raimi made an ultra-low budget, blood soaked horror movie with a bunch of his friends and thus The Evil Dead was born. Later that same decade, in far-off New Zealand, Peter Jackson was making a similarly blood-soaked opus that became Bad Taste. It seems each generation has one or two filmmakers who tap into a creative energy that is so undeniable that it just jumps off the screen. The Old Man: The Movie, might just fill those gonzo filmmaking shoes for the 2020’s.
