YUP! Its a triple feature kind of night! First up, were gonna watch, Big Bad Wolves! The Israeli Big Bad Wolves is a more horrific (but somehow less bleak) look at how far a father will go to save his kidnapped child than 2013’s Prisoners. Here, the girl’s father Gidi (Tzahi Grad) and disgraced police officer Micki (Lior Ashkenazi) take turns torturing their suspect Dror (Rotem Keinan) in the hopes that he’ll reveal the location of his most recent victim. The torture is nauseating in its brutality, but Big Bad Wolves places the viewer in the uncomfortable position of sympathizing with the perpetrators while simultaneously doubting Dror’s guilt. It’s a difficult watch, punctuated by moments of dark humor that alleviate some of the stress but also contribute to the queasy moral uncertainty that permeates the film.
