AAAAAAAAH! is ultimately a poignant examination of the contemporary urban rituals that surround class, gender, identity and violence.

Steve Oram's deeply British feature debut is the kind of mesmerizing cult oddity whose fan base will be limited but passionate.

Guardian

It won't be for everyone, but its oddly complete universe extends to imagining what primate sitcoms and radio might be like, while a rich strain of bathos yields, among other treats, the cinema's most poignant use of battenberg cake.

Rated: 3/5

I got the feeling that Aaaaaaaah! never quite clicks as a whole, and that much of the obvious talent here is wasted.

Avoid at all costs unless you're after a particularly bad headache. Or you're having trouble sleeping.

Rated: 1/10

Electric Sheep

With his debut experiment, Oram vindicates the importance of slapstick comedy and fart jokes (aren't they timeless after all?)

Possibly one of the worst films I have every watched. Yes, for a 2 minutes comedy sketch it might work - but for an entire film? did this film actually make more?

Saved the weirdest film I've seen this year until the end... I understand the concept, was directed and acted perfectly well, but I have to ask - Why?

A look at the modern world but with one alteration: people are essentially neanderthals or cavemen in their development and only communicate through grunts and signs. A very interesting premise, which is why I watched the movie. However, from the first minute the movie doesn't offer anything beyond novelty value. The plot is pretty random and pointless and seems set up mostly to shock the audience. Many scenes which, while aiming to shock, made me just roll my eyes. Even the main idea - people behaving like they're in the Stone Age - doesn't work well. The people involved live in modern home with modern technology, yet eat with their hands and don't appear to have any degree of intelligence. The concept was not grafted seamlessly into modern life at all. End result is an absolute mess. Even worse, it's a pretentious mess. One of the worst movies I've ever seen (and I've seen over 5,000 movies).

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars
