‘Belko’ is an appropriately disreputable, gleefully disturbing movie.
Grungy B-movie horror got respectable years ago.
Director Greg McLean initially slow-burns the moral tension.
(Should the many sacrifice a few?
Belko trends too proudly toward ultraviolence, but theres true-pulp transgression in the films shamelessly sick kicks.
A mass execution starts off troubling and then, somehow, becomes hilarious.
(Paraphrasing Stalin: One death is a tragedy, many deaths are farce.)
If hilarious mass execution sounds upsetting, I shouldnt mention the exploding heads.
