The Garbage Man 

'Jaded' is a film that focuses on the decisions that can derail our lives. Zanna's story takes you through a wide range of emotions.

Considering the runtime, I expected each scene to hit harder as opposed to a series of montages and vignettes. 

The plot could’ve really been interesting if the elements of lycanthropy was integrated with perhaps the struggle of identity of being LGBTQ+. It's an experience for so many that as they’re starting to realizing their true selves, they feel like a monster, especially if they come from unsupportive homes or communities. Instead, the horror and transformation elements seem thrown in without contemplation of how this could deepen the narrative.

If you identify as part of the queer community, or if you love old school slasher flicks, you will love this movie. 

This action thriller is made with the hope that the black youth of America will feel empowered, and realize the significance of their heritage.

I am shocked and upset to report that the movie about a female car mechanic who meets the love of her life online featuring Katy O’Brien does not, in fact, have a lesbian storyline.
