strange and weirdly appealing, 16 August 2005
7/10
Author: Raegan Butcher from Raincity, Pacific Northwest

i've been hearing about this film for 20 yrs and after finally seeing it i am not quite sure what to think; i rather liked it. At the very least it ISN'T boring, as some people say, but it is WEIRD. And that's what works; for me, at least; that sense of unrelenting strangeness that seems to emanate from nowhere.

i think the film, for me, was made more palatable by the fact that i was forewarned of its strange qualities; after reading what other people have said about it i can almost guarantee that they went to this film cold, with no expectations of ambiguous weirdness.

if you have an attention span that can be sustained for longer than 30 seconds at a time and appreciate low-budget ingenuity in service of David Lynchian weirdness(in a western setting, no less) then THE SHOOTING has many rewards.
