Targets (1968) Peter Bogdanovich

Targets is a 1968 thriller directed by Peter Bogdanovich in his (almost) theatrical directorial debut, and starring Tim O'Kelly, Boris Karloff, Nancy Hsueh, Bogdanovich, James Brown, Arthur Peterson and Sandy Baron. The film depicts Bobby Thompson, a young man who goes off on an unexpected killing spree. Coming on the heels of the assassinations of Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert F. Kennedy in the summer of 1968, the film mostly failed at the box office. Come see why it's worth a watch now more than ever in this Marsonet pick on The Clueless Critic.
