BAD PEOPLE

Cinemavixion Review

Alex Petrovitch's "Bad People" (2016) plunges into the murky depths of societal corruption with a series of sharp, often unsettling, sketch-style narratives. Billed as a dark comedy that channels the spirit of "Key & Peele" and "Clerks," the film fearlessly tackles themes of sex, violence, internet dating, and politics. The ensemble cast, featuring Bear Badeaux, Ken Bhan, and Maria Falgione, navigates these provocative scenarios with a commitment that underscores the film's audacious tone. While the plot description from the local data hints at its satirical aims, the external data elaborates on the specific characters and situations, painting a picture of a film that spares no one in its critique of modern society. Despite its polarizing content and a modest critical reception, "Bad People" stands as a bold, albeit controversial, exploration of humanity's darker impulses, aiming for cult status with its unvarnished and often shocking portrayal of contemporary life.
