Review by Bob Ignizio
When small time drug dealer Oscar (Nathaniel Brown) gets gunned down in a bathroom stall by the police, his mind/spirit embarks on a journey to find a new home. Like Robert Montgomery's experimental noir film Lady in the Lake (1947), Enter the Void is shot entirely from a subjective point of view. We see everything through Oscar's eyes at first, and then from a completely unanchored “eye of god” point of view once he becomes free of his body. In showing this, at times director Gaspar Noé jerks and spins his camera around in such a way that he seems to be trying to make his audience nauseous.
