This was super cool. Now I want to watch the movies from the 70's that inspired this.

I'm not aware if it being inspired by anything.
But go and watch Cool Hand Luke, for your own good.
Lucas Fisher

Ayden Foster
this one might be up your alley. similar story of honest guy getting railroaded by the authorities/criminals and it also features one of the craziest stunts in film history.
Bentley Mitchell
>i don't anything about the history of film
Ian Powell
What's the stunt? Also, OP might like Dragged Across Concrete. Same director, Vince Vaughn and Mel Gibson, police/crime thriller type flick with a similar lower-budget/gritty/grindhouse feel.
Nolan Fisher
Try the original Straw Dogs from the 70s. Also Zahler is cool but this board overrated him, he hasn’t made a truly great film since Bone Tomahawk. He needs to stop catching that obnoxious actress in his movies, too, she has no talent.

Celda 211 is prison kino.
Brayden Cox
Straw dogs is a good call, peckinpahs nihilism is a good fit for zahler. Also 70s era friedkin is tonally similar

>has to roll out then back in order to escape the path of the car after it's struck by the train

The balls on that guy.

Came here to recommend Straw Dogs.
Already mentioned in the thread, so I guess there's still some people with taste in this board after all.
Joshua Clark
It wasn't inspired by anything. Zahler is a genius.
David Jones
not the 70s but Lock up is one hell of a fun prison movie.
Luke Turner
he dead?
Isaiah Johnson
Cool Hand Luke is 10/10
Fact, not opinion.
Samuel Rivera
It's very amusing reading the 1 star reviews on Amazon for this. Half of them are some variation on
>I love Vince Vaugh, but this was just unwatchable!
Sebastian Nguyen
Thanks for this, will watch.
Andrew Peterson
In a better world perhaps he would be given bigger budgets to make the films he really wants to do but making them lower budget is the only way he can get full creative control.
Dylan Watson
Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky
this is trashy asian flick but fun annd it has a shit tone of those cheesy special effects
Samuel Howard
Watch The Burning Moon, the director's favorite horror film. It's based and redpilled.
Easton Johnson
This has potential to be a based thread. Everyone post your recommendations.
Oliver Lee
Homoerotic trash
Evan Morales
Debatable. Try The Standoff at Sparrow Creek, same company Cinestate that made all of Zahler's kino. It's a fucking paranoid right-wing knockout, no hyperbole. The casting is perfect.
Oliver Ramirez
10/10 criminally underrated flick
Nathaniel Lopez
Escape from Alcatraz
Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia
