"Digging Up the Marrow" (2015)
Watched
Adam Green's latest film, "Digging Up the Marrow" (2015). If you're
like me and grew up loving monsters and always imagining a world where
undiscovered creatures roamed in the deep, dark forests, you're going to
adore this film like I did! More of a "mockumentary", it chronicles
director Adam Green following around a possible nutcase (played by one
of my favorite genre actors, Ray Wise) who
claims to know where an underground lair of real monsters exits that he
calls "the marrow" (think Midian from "Nightbreed"). As the
investigation deepens, Green becomes as equally obsessed with the marrow
and things go from lighthearted to dire, as tensions build between the
two men. What surprised me was how well Green was able to play off of a
great character actor like Wise, who is certainly an old pro, without
missing a beat. All in all, I found it to be wildly entertaining, with
some great comedic bits thrown in amongst the spookier elements. 9 out of 10 for me.
