Strange kid
I first saw the poster of "Kid Strange", a dazzling large green, and a strange boy with bunny ears, holding a small organ in his hand. The whole poster seems to be a big black hole full of gravity, which seduced all my curiosity. It's a neurotic film, with fragmented images barely able to piece...

dying, dying
After watching this movie, I always wanted to see it. There's rock and roll, there's talking to itself. There is laughter. Every smiling face gives people despair. Like the movie itself. After watching it, only scattered memories remain. Bunny is sitting in the toilet and playing the accordion. The...

Character Evaluation
Harm is known for being grotesque and obscure.
Most of his works are based on black humor and absurdism surrounding alien childhood, mental disorders and poverty
.
Harm is a maverick film director who has never made a name for himself. His films have the style of European independent films. For example, there is no complete storyline, improvisational performances, highly symbolic and complex metaphors
. In his filmed prose, he can see through the lens the emotions conveyed in each movie: loneliness, confusion, helplessness and turmoil
.
Harm maintains his own unique image style and independence in film production.
His films have opened up a very complicated way to deny easy comment, subverting the traditional logical and sloppy thinking, and blurring the ordinary black and white. At the same time, the opposing thoughts of the United States have also put into very interesting explorations for the core American culture and ideals. The violence in his works is often accompanied by humor, and the vagueness of reality and non-reality is not only a design out of style, but also an aesthetic strategy that cannot be interpreted
