Larry Karaszewski on “Joe”
Sep 9, 2009
Trailer 331 of 695
A pre-Rocky John Avildsen directed this grungy NY indie that was conceived as an exploitation film but evolved into something more immediate and disturbing. Peter Boyle, in his breakthrough role as a hippie-hating hardhat, teams up with ad exec Dennis Patrick, who has just accidentally killed his daughter's drug-dealer boyfriend. Boyle and Patrick are terrific but the picture is not well known today.

The one original touch: a caveman monster with veins that go ACROSS his nostrils (look fast and you can see him in the trailer). Umm, other than that...

I have a great fondness for this daft film. I remember running around my grandad's garden with a hankerchief I found tied around my hand because I saw Doug McClure do it in either this or another Conner film promting my grandad to ask of I'd hurt myself...

"Phoned it in so intensely, you can almost hear the dial tones" That line is better than anything in this film..
