Excerpt from "The banality of
evil" by Peter Howell, Toronto Star, September 18, 2021
"Recent hit movies, and new ones arriving soon via
the Toronto International Film Festival, are redefining notions of bad
taste and excess by making the ghastly seem commonplace.
"It's no longer just mob figures or Quentin
Tarantino's zoot-suited oddballs perpetrating the mayhem. It's
your next-door neighbour.
"Shock and excess are no longer the domain of
porno flicks, teen slasher movies and arthouse controversies like Lolita.
They're now staples of major Hollywood hits."
