Here's a comedy that at the very least tried something different so while I totally get why a lot of people don't like it, the vitriol and anger directed at the movie was completely unjustified. What works for me are the deliberately cheap yet highly stylized designs and the weird performances where everyone seems totally committed to this bonkers premise.

I quite enjoyed this film and thought it was harmless fun. Chris Elliott has always been an aquired taste and the film rests souly on what your idea of him is. The film has great ambitions and when the film travels into its fantasy world it succeeds where the rest of the film lacks. full of interesting characters and great intentions, the silly premise is always a little hit and miss though which drags the film down when it should be gaining strength. this film has slowly developed into a cult favorite over the years and its clearly got Tim Burtons input. if you are looking for an interesting and weird film that was clearly before its tme then you'll find it hear. the film deserved a little more appreciation then it got.
