From the opening scene of Wild at Heart, David Lynch crosses the line between art and obscenity. A white man beats a Black man to a literal pulp - blood oozes, bones crack, body crumples... Lynch's paean to fifties values in Wild at Heart shows exactly where his heart is: deep in the darkness of a lily-white paranoid America. |

There is something repulsive and manipulative about it, and even its best scenes have the flavor of a kid in the school yard, trying to show you pictures you don't feel like looking at. |

|
A real contender for bad-taste movie of the year... And the rock score matches the mood - heavy, man, heavy... Take a sick bag. |

Much of it makes no sense and is just plain pretentious and tedious. Don't look too hard for the plot or you'll strain your eyes. |
