Reilly). Another protagonist McKay would’ve enjoyed seeing perish in pure agony?...

They form a fast friendship, and avoid their families over the summer by building their own car — so this is a road movie, Michel Gondry style....

‘Nightcrawler’ Red-Band Trailer: Vulgar Praise Flows For The Excellent Thriller By Russ Fischer/Oct. 27, 2014 10:00 am EST This Nightcrawler red-band trailer is unusual. Most red-band trailers are restricted because of the language or images contained in the film footage. In this one, most of the foul language comes from critic quotes praising the film. (Though the characters spew a few choice lines, too.) And, yeah, Nightcrawler is great; as bitingly funny as it is brutally disturbing....
