Kids at 30: the most controversial movie of the Nineties still has the power to disgust
Audiences, critics and politicians the world over were horrified by Larry Clark and Harmony Korine's dramatisation of wayward Manhattan youth. Three decades on, writes Adam White, its provocations remain jolting – and desperate 'This is disgusting material that panders to paedophile fantasies,' went one prominent Liberal Democrat MP in 1996, amid the UK release of Kids, an artful bit of pubescent scuzz that had already horrified its fans and its detractors on the other side of the Atlantic one year earlier. Britain loves an opportunity for performative outrage — even more so back then. This was the same year, it's worth noting, that the Daily Mail reacted to the release of David Cronenberg's kinky thriller Crash with trademark composure: 'Ban This Car Crash Sex Film', its front page blared. But the Kids controversy isn't one we can look back on now, heads in collective hands, mortified that we took it all quite so seriously. For Kids was, is and (hopefully, at least) always will be a pungent provocation; a grimly nihilistic portrait of wayward youth that revels in its own eagerness to disgust. On this occasion, the Lib Dems may have had a point.

Tamashika: New indie game sparks backlash amid links to Israel
ALBAWABA - Tamashika, an upcoming indie game developed by quicktequila and published by Harmony Korine's EDGLRD, recently sparked controversy after social media users linked both parties to supporting Israel, Zionism, and the IDF. However, while many gamers expressed their interest in Tamashika for its unique visuals, the game's popularity started plummeting after social media users discovered the publisher and developer's political views on the ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza. According to the pro-Palestine organization Reverse Canary Mission, EDGLRD's Harmony Korine and his wife Rachel Korine allegedly raised over $10 million for Israel's IDF. Kinda funny how everyone stopped pretending that this game looked good the moment they learned it had ties to the IDF — H20: 2nd Impact (@I__HATE_SOCCER) June 15, 2025 On the contrary, while there is no evidence of quicktequila's financial support for Israel, the indie developer revealed on their official X account (formerly known as Twitter) that they support Zionism. In a now-deleted post, the developer wrote, "Plot twist: I was always a Ziosnist!" This sparked widespread debate on Musk's platform with pro-Palestinian social media users urging gamers not to promote Tamashika or wishlist it. EDGLRD describes the game as a spiritual version of Doom, a cuter take on the popular indie game Post Void, with meditative FPS gameplay that cleanses your brain. The unusual anime-themed FPS, currently planned for a 2025 release date, has a demo available for players to try out, according to its official Steam store page.

Spring Breakers 2 sparks backlash as first look at cast is revealed
A sequel to the controversial 2012 film Spring Breakers is on the way and it is set to star Bella Thorne. The original, directed by transgressive filmmaker Harmony Korine, follows four college girls as they rob a diner to fund a trip to Florida for Spring Break. The R-rated flick starred James Franco, Selena Gomez and Vanessa Hudgens. Now, more than a decade later, a sequel titled Spring Breakers: Salvation Mountain, will be directed by Harmony Korine and heading up the cast is former child star Thorne. She is joined by social media star Baby Ariel and Netflix star Grace Van Dien, best known for Greenhouse Academy and Stranger Things. Several social media users have reacted negatively to the news, with one commenting: 'We don't need this.' Another wrote: 'It's giving straight to dvd.' A third said: 'Why? Nobody even remembers this movie. It's not Mean Girls!' Despite Korine and the original cast not returning for the sequel, the producers of the original feature, Muse Production's Chris Hanley and Jordan Gertner, are back. In a statement they said: 'We're thrilled to be working with Christian and Capture on Spring Breakers: Salvation Mountain and excited to keep exploring bold, new, disruptive stories around that wild, fever dream of youth. 'The desire for spring break to go on forever is something we've never let go of.' The original Spring Breakers premiered at film festivals in 2012 before receiving a wide release the following year. It grossed over $30million on a $5million budget, making it a huge financial success. Despite receiving mixed reviews at the time, the film went on to achieve cult status and was credited for establishing Gomez as an adult actress. Gomez had the role of Faith, a young woman who tries to devote her life to Christianity but at the same time is also friends with the three party girls.
