Hardware director Richard Stanley’s long-lost second feature is a heady mix of magic, ritual murder and pre-Apartheid politics set in the desert wastelands of Namibia, where a shape-shifting serial killer (Robert Burke) prowls the highways looking for lost souls to suck dry.
Filled with elaborate tracking shots and spiritual meaning, Stanley’s arty occult horror fantasy demonstrates an audacious personal vision that’s still oddly haunting despite the mystifying plot.
