Trash Humpers

Name: Trash Humpers
Director: Harmony Korine
Released: 2010
Duration: 78 mins

Synopsis

A film unearthed from the buried landscape of the American nightmare, Trash Humpers follows a small group of elderly 'Peeping Toms' through the shadows and margins of an unfamiliar world. Crudely documented by the participants themselves, we follow the debased and shocking actions of a group of true sociopaths the likes of which have never been seen before. Inhabiting a world of broken dreams and beyond the limits of morality they crash against a torn and frayed America. Bordering on an ode to vandalism, it is a new type of horror; palpable and raw.
