Zug

1987, English. Directed by Dorn Martell & Erik Iversen.

Tells the story of Jerry, a factory worker with some industrial strength nightmares that are an attempt to escape the harsh reality of his industrial environment. Unrelentingly grim visions of the industrial wasteland such as the horrifyingly violent and erotic inner world bred in those wastes become blurred in his mind until he finally takes action, thereby freeing himself and the love of his dreams from the inhumane imprisonment symbolized by the dark, shadowy Brain Police. A film directed by a group of young filmmakers who live and work in the automotive corridor of the Midwest, Zug has the look of an Eraserhead sequel, Detroit style. Photographed in shadowy film noir tones, with gruesome special effects and a synthesized mechanical soundtrack.
