U.S. Press Quotes:
“Revengeance is a mind-fucking descent into ’70s Los Angeles scuzz.”
Walker MacMurdo, Willamette Week
“A High-minded stroll between whimsy and lunacy.”
Jay Horton, Willamette Week
“Lujan and Plympton are both masters of sleazy irreverence and their mordant, scatalogical-inflected humour is bracingly amped up in their collaboration. Together, they have produced an unbridled, caustic, grotesquely comic vision of America that feels particularly timely.”
Virginie Sélavy, Sight & Sound
French Reviewers: “A psychedelic thriller on a paranoiac America in the dirty and cool style of Plympton.Crazy and cool”
Les Inrockuptibles
“Bikers, eccentric girls, tattooed mouths – the Maverick of the animation realize a thriller like Tarantino, virulent and ironic. Completely disturbs and full of humor”
