Summary: 5 Stars
Manhood is a dark place. It's located behind Travis Bickle's mirror, staring down the barrel of Dirty Harry's magnum, in the makeshift torture dungeons of Vincent Price's Prospero and in the loud, claustrophobic apartment of Driller Killer's artist antihero, Reno. From Ford to Ferrara, Krall has searched the vast, gutwrenching, beautiful worlds of genre and exploitation cinema to map this realm and brings you fabulous insights into how it runs with over-the-top sex and violence and elegant, simple prose. At its crossroads is the town of Screwhorse, a dirty, salacious frontier pleasure paradise that indulges all of men's vices, from greed to lust down to wrath. When Clint Eastwood avatar Calamaro comes to Screwhorse, there's plenty of the latter to go around, because Calamaro's got an awful combination of traits-sadism and a need for justice. The struggle between justice and revenge is a theme that plays out in almost every relevant examination of manhood and Fistful of Feet is no different. What makes Fistful of Feet different is that it goes further than the films it grew out of, into darker, funnier, sicker territory that therefore becomes truer territory. Fistful of Feet maps out bleak, scatological, funny and gory new regions in the realm of machismo and you couldn't have a better guide than Jordan Krall.
