The meta masterpiece from Laundry Room Inc.’s last 2023 production team came to receive a reception impossible to explore because of Google’s high censorship regarding dislikes on its video platform. Its conscious decision to take some opinions hostage (this is literally apartheid: expected reactions are rewarded and discouraged ones are redacted) forces me into creating a semi non-fictional account of the reactions stirred by All The Rage Back Home.
Social commentary films are usually made like this: “let’s create a generic-ass movie and have the plot display our views on immigration”. And they win prizes. And they fail. They fail because they work. After one screening, the audience thinks in unison “woah, this is a real crisis”. Whatever the fuck they are trying to communicate, it goes straight into their conscious brain, and this is always a mistake. The result? Next day memory reset.
From Derby in Wichita up to all the rage back home, LRI-006 manages to execute (kill) human perception, throwing the audience into an abyss of “what they are saying doesn’t make sense” and “not the best way to allocate resources” and “this is plain wrong”. Sounds familiar? Yes. Yes it is. LRI-006 hereby excels in depicting what most adults would like to forget: the states of the world are failed states. There is no escape but country.
