Ex-drummer
DVD REVIEW
Ex Drummer
Certificate: 18 Director: Koen Mortler
Flemish writer Dries is approached by three low-life 'handicapped' musicians to join their ironically named punk band, The Feminists. Dries's 'disability' is that he can't play the drums. This makes him ideal to join the band as a drummer. How this squalid shower managed to hang together is a mystery. They hate one another; they hate their families but they hate the leader of a rival band – Big Dick – even more as they try to win a local rock festival.
This politically incorrect film is not for the squeamish. It has some explicit images that will probably never leave you. Shocking, disturbing and blackly humorous; Koen Mortler's disturbing warts-and-all black comedy really assaults all your senses, especially after its blood-spattered finale. Fun for all the family this isn't!
Tartan Video. Released Feb 25th 2008. RRP £19.99
