5.0 out of 5 stars A Machiavellian Menu?, May 9, 2005

By

This review is from: The Last Supper (DVD)

It was a dark and stormy night when five liberal graduate students in Iowa meet for Sunday dinner and find that in an excess of gratitude (for providing a ride to one of their members) they have invited a right-wing nut case to join them. Before dinner is over, the guest has pulled a knife and threatened several of the students, and in a move that is obviously defensive but not self-defense, one of the students delivers a knife to the back of the guest, who then dies. Contemplating their options, the students determine the best course is to dispose of the body in the backyard. As they debate the "how the liberals talk and talk and don't do anything" (except that they did) the opportunities for future dinner "dates" and just a bit of arsenic in the wine becomes a reality. As the plants in the backyard flourish with the new fertilizer, the sheriff is becoming curious, the students are nervous and on edge - and the very Last Supper delivers a truly Machiavellian twist.

Did the choice of title chase away the intended audience? Perhaps that is the explanation for why this film is so little known. Save it for a dark and stormy night, and be ready for a surprise.

4.0 out of 5 stars Independently Stupendous, April 26, 2000

By

This review is from: Last Supper [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I saw this movie at a point in my life when I was absolutely fed up with big-budget Hollywood movies and was looking for something...different. And this movie definitely qualifies as different. It's intelligent political humor and its not-so-subtle commentary on the effects of youthful idealism are actually entertaining rather than tiresome and preachy. Even the overly simplistic representation of the tomatoes for blood, which is most apparent when you see the clear tomato-filled jars lining the shelves, didn't feel like a glaring attempt at cinematic sophistication, but is instead realized and relished. This movie is a welcomed break from the cliched explosive action flicks and ho-hum romantic comedies appearing so frequently on the big screen. It would appeal to anyone who can think of a few people this world could do better without...and we all can name a few, right?

I'm not sure how or where I stumbled across this movie, but I never miss it when it comes on and now I own it. Don't take this movie too seriously, watch it for entertainment value and you'll have a great time. Excellent and original concept. I love it. Rent it, own it, watch it!
