Fiction's PoMo Characters

[Jamie McKittrick]

Jerky, it's the same full-throttle that turns you on that turns me off. It
is relentless and aimless and by the half-way mark my brain's given up the
ghost. Lynch at his loosest, most-baggy. Actually, reading your description
of WAH puts me in mind of the Herzog remake of Bad Lieutenant, which would
make a good midnight double-bill feature.

We can agree on Lost Highway for sure though.
