Dead Alive

Dead Alive
(1992) [Trailer]
Director: Peter Jackson (IMDB)

It's crazy to think that Peter Jackson, the man who's responsible for Lord of the Rings directed this movie. This film is on a whole other level compared to LOTR, but just as genius in it's own right.

Synopsis: A man falls head over heels for a young immigrant girl. Worlds collide when his overbearing mother tries her best to keep their love from fully blooming.

True love can never be stopped and this movie is a perfect example of that motto. The deep emotional commitment that's explored in this film is unmatched by any other and the lengths at which Tim and Paquita go to be together are unreal. The mother's blind stubbornness and hatred are one thing, but to watch her character deteriorate on film is pretty climatic, it's like she becomes this whole other monster. The two star crossed lovers battle lots of obstacles and even separate shortly, but eventually they reunite. Will it all work out in the end? Watch and find out.
