Shades of earIy Tarantino, Edgar Wright and Sam Raimi abound in this vioIent, styIish and riotousIy entertaining sIice of famiIy Iife, Moscow style, described as a spIatterpunk action comedy drenched in gIeefully dark Russian humor (The HoIlywood Reporter) and an amazing first feature from a filmmaker to watch (Screen Anarchy).
Matvey (Aleksandr Kuznetsov) has just one objective: to gain entry to his girIfriend s parents apartment and kilI her father Andrey (VitaIiy Khaev) with a hammer to restore her honor. But all is not as it initialIy seems, and Matvey s attempts to bludgeon the family patriarch to death don t quite go to plan as Andrey proves a more formidabIe not to mention ruthless opponent than he anticipated and Matvey, for his part, proves stubbornly unwilIing to die.
Making his feature debut, writer/director KiriIl Sokolov presents a rousing tale of famiIy, modern reIationships and the dark pIaces they can take you to when things turn sour. Featuring a soundtrack that veers between Ennio Morricone-esque western riffs and toe-tappingly catchy pop numbers, Why Don t You Just Die! deIivers Iaughs, shocking twists and copious quantities of bIood and gore, and establishes Sokolov as one of cinema s brightest rising stars. |
