'Vintage Violence' Uses Phone Interfaces for Absurdist Crime Thriller Storytelling
A new film integrates smartphone and social media elements into its narrative structure.
"Vintage Violence," described as an absurdist crime thriller, uses modern technology interfaces—including text messages and livestreams—as part of its storytelling approach, according to The Verge. The film follows a trend of genre movies that have attempted to weave contemporary digital communication into their narratives.
The Verge notes that similar efforts include the Twitch-style horror film "Deadstream," but characterizes "Vintage Violence" as "the most chaotic to date" in its integration of tech elements.
