An as-needed series chronicling those times when we pull the plug on a film by walking out or halting the video:
NEIGHBORING SOUNDS - This debut film is apparently supposed to instill dread while weaving together various stories of residents on a block in a town in Brazil. I couldn't click with any one character. I was mildly entertained by the bored housewife who uses a vacuum to cover up her pot smoking and who humps her washing machine for pleasure. But the plot -- involving a series of car break-ins that draws a security team that might be worse than the bad guys -- plods.
Running time: 2 hours, 11 minutes
Plug pulled: 1 hour
A discussion of film, music, culture and divine intervention from the Pop Zeus.
