Ever found that mystery‑meat burrito buried in the back of a gas‑station freezer that somehow makes your taste buds question their entire existence? Tom is that burrito, only in movie form. A grimy, unapologetic, so‑wrong‑it’s‑right piece of cinematic junk food that somehow burns itself into the cortex of your brain. This isn’t a bad movie…
