Badlands (1973)Director Terence Malick's debut is based on the Charles Starkweather murder spree of the 1950's. A South Dakota garbage collector woos a naive high school away from her father-- and kills him-- and the two embark on a statewide killing binge. A slice of demented Americana, made all the more disturbing by Malick's understated direction and Sheen's over-the-top James Dean posturing.
