Liquid Sky Ratings & Reviews
Ty Burr's Watch List (Substack)
Ty Burr
"Liquid Sky" is a gonzo comedy, a solarized downtown farce set in the wee hours just before the sun came up on Ronald Reagan's morning in America.
Rob's Movie Vault
Rob Gonsalves
Its post-punk callousness gives it an irreverent kick.
Gay Community News (Boston)
Cindy Patton
The film does not permit despair or inaction. Rather, it begs a wry laugh and the courage to change our world against all odds.
Film Frenzy
Matt Brunson
The film's throbbing music score, trippy effects, and commentary on sex, drugs & (punk) rock'n'roll mark it as a particularly spacey odyssey.
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Eleanor Ringel Cater
This film doesn't give a Day-Glo damn about making sense, but in its own deadpan, punked-out way, it's quite funny.
Battleship Pretension
Tyler Smith
Those that are willing to engage with the film on its own strange level will be rewarded with a memorable film experience.
Newcity
Ray Pride
A monstrous, grandiose, often-glorious disco-cum-punk neon gender---- science-fiction singularity.
Boston Globe
Jay Carr
It's punk sci-fi, black comedy executed at the level of a vicious high-fashion comic strip; yet it rises above its banalities and leaves an imprint.
Village Voice
Alan Scherstuhl
The film might sound ludicrous, and it is often funny - intentionally - but it's impassioned rather than some grim joke.
TV Guide
Outrageous fun, this film is New Wave chic, satire, self-parody, science fiction, and certainly one of the more accessible independent features ever made.
Variety
Variety Staff
Liquid Sky is an odd, yet generally pleasing mixture of punk rock, science fiction, and black humor.
Chicago Reader
Dave Kehr
Anne Carlisle, who stars as both the model and her creepy male counterpart, projects a disturbing and original aura of opaque, ingrained despair.
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
Capturing the manner and humor of a comic strip about punk culture, Liquid Sky is the brain product of Slava Tsukerman, a Soviet emigre in NY; like the aliens in his cult flick, he explores the exotic pleasures denied him in his native country.
New York Times
Janet Maslin
[This] film, with a heroine who is sometimes a hero and who is apt to show up in a red corset with matching red-and-blond skunk hairdo, can hardly be for everyone. But the right audiences are bound to appreciate the originality displayed here.
F5 (Wichita, KS)
Jake Euker
Bad, but sometimes fascinating. It's genuinely strange and, at least, truly independent.
Blunt Review
Emily Blunt
Truly a punk quirk film...
Lawrence Journal-World
Jon Niccum
A creepy performance by Anne Carlisle makes this watchable
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
Since its unmemorable release in 1982, the Warhol-esque Liquid Sky has developed a rather significant cult following.
