Primer, the directorial debut of Shane Carruth, lacks any narrative thread, but essentially is a story about four broke, thirtysomething engineers who create a mysterious box in their garage that defies scientific rationality and seems to give them inexplicable control over life. Two members of the group, Aaron (Shane Carruth) and Abe (David Sullivan), decide to probe what potential their creation might have: They explore the commercial possibilities of time-travel for a few hours each day, encounter dreadful mishaps in a Scooby Doo-esque fashion and finally, things end quite badly, with the audience, plot and characters...

...quick glance at song titles from the two bands immediately grants an idea of their lyrical objectives. In 1984, The Smiths debuted the “Heaven Knows I’m Miserable Now” 7-inch even before their self-titled debut, an album that featured such noteworthy sad track titles as “You’ve Got Everything Now,” “Pretty Girls Make Graves,” and “Still Ill.” As they slid into eventual global cult following (massive in Mexico, of all places...
