Episode 04: Eye Of God/Bully

We Own the Dark Episode 04 goes dark…very dark. With Jason’s choice, Tim Blake Nelson’s criminally underseen and utterly soul-crushing masterpiece Eye of God (1997), we discuss the value of patience within filmmaking and character-building in the genre world. Jerry was inspired by this first-time watch to continue the small-town train with the 2001 Larry Clark true-crime thriller, Bully. Both films feature outstanding performances and grim looks at the dangers of both religious fervor and mob mentality.

Take a watch then take a listen and let us know what you think of the pairing!
