Synopsis
Natural Born Killers (1994) — watch online one of the most controversial American thrillers on iFILM. Director Oliver Stone reworked Quentin Tarantino's original script into a savage media satire, with Woody Harrelson and Juliette Lewis as Mickey and Mallory Knox, two lovers cutting a bloody path across the country.
The couple don't kill for money or orders. They kill because the world gave them nothing worth keeping. Robert Downey Jr. plays tabloid TV host Wayne Gale, who follows the trail with a camera crew and turns the massacre into appointment viewing. Tommy Lee Jones is the warden waiting at the end of the road. Released by Warner Bros. in August 1994, the film was banned or heavily cut in 13 countries and sparked a fierce debate about violence and the news cycle that hasn't stopped since.
Stone shot it in deliberately fractured style — switching film stocks mid-scene, cutting to fake sitcom flashbacks, splicing in news graphics — to mirror the way broadcast television frames horror as entertainment. Stream Natural Born Killers (1994) online on iFILM.
