August 30, 2006 TIDELAND by Jamie E17 Filmmaker and animator Terry Gilliam is blessed with one of the most fertile imaginations in modern cinema, producing a handful of highly original films such as Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas, Time Bandits, The Adventures of Baron Munchausen and the iconic Brazil. Now comes his adaption of Mitch Cullin’s Tideland, a category defying film that is at turns poetic, absurd, disgusting and darkly funny. An Alice in Wonderland meets Psycho. After her junkie mother dies, Jeliza-Rose is taken from the big city to a rural farmhouse by her father. As she tries to settle into a new life, her imagination runs wild. Firefiles have names, bog-men awaken at dusk, squirrels can talk and four bodiless Barbie heads, including some bizarre neighborhood inhabitants keep her company. In cinemas now! Tideland
