Episode 141 - Angst

No, not teenage angst! “Angst” with a long ‘A’! And boy did this one earn that ‘A’ +! After being a bit too much for the faint of heart when it was originally released and being shelved for years, “Angst” has since made its way back into availability: and let it be known this is quite the movie. Ryan and Tim were just on the verges of our top rating, settling on a “rent” for Tim and just over the line to a “buy” for Ryan, with both heaping tons of praise onto the extremely intense filmmaking within. Its incredible camera work, along with superb performances and a truly unsettling depiction of insanity, make “Angst” one not to be missed.
