Blu-ray Review - Roadkill
December 07, 2024
Prolific Canadian director Bruce McDonald gets his start in feature-length filmmaking with 1989's "Roadkill." It's an offering of quirk and contemplation from the helmer, who sets out to make a road movie with very little money and a screenplay (credited to Don McKellar) that allows for a wandering mood of experiences facing a woman on a mission to find a band in Northern Ontario. "Roadkill" is something of a comedy, but McDonald is more interested in the journey, allowing the endeavor to roam. It's a fine example of indie cinema from the Great White North, but as a viewing experience on its own, the picture isn't quite as involving, especially when it starts to run out of ideas.
