Angel Heart

1987

New Orleans, LA

Alan Parker

Noir Crime Thriller Period Piece

What’s it all about: Lisa Bonet does a satanic chicken dance that most certainly ended up on the mood board for “Lemonade.” Meanwhile, Robert de Niro shows Mickey Rourke what a bad guy he is by not trimming his nails and eating an egg.

First Encounter: got this confused with Avenging Angel and watched by mistake

Prostitute Index: Low (All Volunteer)

Death by: Gumbo

Relics: match strikes, face touching, Black kids dancing as set dressing

Heartthrobs: Lisa Bonet

LoFi Magic: Getting tossed out of a bar into a pile of empty boxes and trashcans

Makes me want to: stick to po’ boys

Worth a watch/rewatch: No
