Green Room2016

Holy cow... Patrick Stewart as a backwoods skinhead nazi running a bar joint with live music. Jeremy Saulnier came out swinging with Blue Ruin but he cranked it up to 11 in Green Room as far as intensity, suspense, and anxiety are concerned. Going from an ambling, touring troupe of teenagers trying to make some money playing any show they can get, to playing for unpredictable group of skinheads in the middle of the nowhere, Green Room drags you deeper and deeper into a level of insanity rarely captured so perfectly before. Once they head back to the green room after their set, you’ll be grabbing at straws to know what’s coming next. You’ll squirm, you’ll cheer, and then immediately feel devastated all over again. Once again, a huge shoutout to Saulnier regular Macon Blair for playing someone so relatable in such a unique way. Can’t praise him enough. *I would trust Saulnier with anything at this point, especially if it’s two words, the first of them being a color.*
