An Apocalyptic Valentine…


I am sure we all deal with death differently as I am sure that we will all deal with the end of the world in our own ways. Some people will opt- out while other’s will rape and pillage.  Many may be very Samantha about it and fuck our way to through d-day. Who can really say?

Well Abel Ferrara has a scenario that is a little avant-garde. Check out this cool off beat approach at how humanity will take it’s final bow….

The film stars Willem Dafoe, Shanyn Leigh, Paz de la Huerta, and Natasha Lyonne.
444-Last-Day-on-Earth
“With the planet on the verge of extinction, a New York couple (Dafoe and Leigh) cycle through moments of anxiety, ecstasy, and torpor. As they sink into the havens of sex and art, and Skype last goodbyes in a Lower East Side apartment filled with screens bearing tidings of doom and salvation, the film becomes one of Ferrara’s most potent and intimate expressions of spiritual crisis. An apocalyptic trance film, 4:44 LAST DAY ON EARTH is also a mournful valentine to Ferrara’s beloved New York: the director’s first fiction feature to be filmed entirely in the city in over a decade, and coming 10 years after the September 11 attacks, a haunting vision of doom in the lower Manhattan skyline.”
