      Audience Member Finally a movie as crazy as I feel in 2020. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/29/20 Full Review Audience Member Weird stuff and a weird movie. I guess this one is more for the makers and a specialized audience than it is for the general public. I nevertheless was not bored and found it easy to finish. For sure 'original' is a good word for this movie. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member More people should check this out. Glad they didn't put the poster here that makes this look like a horror movie. This is a wonderfully crafted bizzare comedy, that ranks with the likes of Rocky Horror Picture Show..although this isn't a musical and it's more bizzare and funny, with some minorly serious elements. I can see this becoming a cult classic in the future. Dive into these fascinating characters. Also, I think that these characters in situations like this would make a great tv series as well. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Bizarre little film, quirky and entertaining but not great. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member I think you need to be on some kind of chemicals to think this movie is funny or intriguing. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member Absolutely horrid. I usually hate British films, and this one is simply further justification. Son of Rambo, you sucked. Asylum Seekers, you were somehow even worse. It makes no sense, the characters are so f-ing weird, the story is week, the events shamelessly weird for the sake of being weird, and an ending which attempts to tie together all the poorly developed allusions to life and its insanity. Here's an example of people who tried to make a cleverly disguised social commentary and just made me sick. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
