Critic Jason Bailey, author of Gandolfini: Jim, Tony, and the Life of a Legend, returns to UNWATCHABLES for two controversial films by the late, um, great(?) Joel Schumacher. 1993's FALLING DOWN may be THE angry white man vigilante thriller, a Rorschach test that either examines or celebrates racially charged grievance. Then there’s 1999's bleak psychological thriller 8MM, which answers the question: what if SE7EN shared a director with BATMAN & ROBIN?
