Weird but interesting
I must confess I'm not familiar with the writings of
William S. Burroughs: I remember trying to read some fragments from Naked Lunch online when I was teen, but I found it way too confusing and random for my taste.
This short is weird, surreal and random, like those Naked Lunch fragments I read back then: It's like taking a look inside some extravagant dream or delirium, but the way in which said dream is portrayed is quite fascinating.
The imagery Phillip Hunt displays here is creative and beautifully grotesque, having a certain "timeless" feel, disregard of the somewhat dated CGI.
Maybe the only proper way to adapt Naked Lunch into film is making little surreal shorts like this one.
