Cinema’s first Iranian vampire western, Ana Lily Amirpour‘s directorial debut feature basks in the sheer pleasure of pulp. Amped by a mix of Iranian rock, techno, and Morricone-inspired riffs, its airy, anamorphic, black-and-white aesthetic and artfully drawn-out scenes combine the simmering tension of Sergio Leone with the weird surrealism of David Lynch.
