Worm

The contrast set out in the previous section between Adjungierte Dislokationen and Wearable Urban Routine is reflected in the contrast one can draw between Hardcore Henry and another film shot entirely with a GoPro, Worm (Andrew Bowser, 2013). Just like these aforementioned experimental works, here we find contrasting first-person and third-person views (to borrow expressions from video games), or between egocentric and exo-centric points of view (to employ the terms proposed in other published works).^[3] Just like Hardcore Harry, Worm is also a chase story in which the eponymous protagonist, Jason “Worm” Truitt, must flee the law as he tries to prove his innocence in a case of double homicide in a small town in the American South.
