Rain on the Scarecrow, Blood on the Plow 2017
One shattered image after another, its like an invitation to getting cut up into ribbons and thunder-lit shapes. And pops open some 3-6 Mafia like a damn inebriated DJ that doesn't stop bopping til he catches everything.

Yet, this movie was as funny as I remembered it being and the…
