London Kills Me

About This Movie

So, 'London Kills Me' is this really raw slice of life that captures the desperate hustle of a young guy in the London drug scene. The pacing feels a bit offbeat, which suits the chaotic world he’s trying to escape. There’s this underlying tension throughout as he navigates the absurdity of his situation, wanting something better, yet being pulled back in. The performances are pretty grounded, with a gritty realism that makes you feel the stakes. The practical effects, though not the main focus, add some authenticity to the drug culture portrayal. It's distinctive for its dark comedic elements that weave through the drama, making it a unique watch in the early '90s British indie film landscape.
