Dead End Drive-In


A teenager gets trapped by bureaucracy in a place full of lawlessness, madness, racism and eighties car crashes and works to escape. Which he does, but to a larger place full of lawlessness, madness, racism and eighties car crashes thus coming to the uncomfortable realisation that everywhere is just full of lawlessness, madness, racism and eighties car crashes.
Topical.

  1. JoeFest 2017 exhibited many fucks, attempted fucks, or misadvised fucks in the back of various vehicles.
    Thanks to Dead End Drive-In, we can safely say that if you're down for that kind of thing, what you want is a 1956 Chevy.

  2. Confused, but entertaining post apocalyptic sci fi with hamfisted (to put it mildly) social commentary. Joefest's most remakable movie this year.

  3. Marxism for drunk Australians

  4. A weird side note - two of the movies on the big screen were Man from Hong Kong and Turkey Shoot. Joefest goes meta.

  5. None of it makes much sense and clunky (if oddly prescient) social commentary abounds but it's also trashy and uber-80s enough to make it an entertaining watch.
