David Cornelius DVDTalk.com A brutally funny and wickedly smart mix of pitch-black comedy and insane screwball farce... Unquestionably one of the best direct-to-video releases of the year. Rated: 4.5/5 Oct 8, 2007 Full Review Read all reviews

C B Some parts are kind of humorous. Would probably have worked better as a one hour TV show. Given it's tone, I predicted what was really going on in the story. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 06/24/25 Full Review Audience Member David Hewlett showcases his amazing comedic genius in this little known movie. Kate and David Hewlett always are fantastic playing pretty much themselves, and Paul McGillion is hilarious in his role(s). A must see. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member I thought the humor was really spot on. I enjoyed it enough to purchase the DVD which is exactly what I did. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member I was a fan of SG-A so when I saw that David had done his own film I thought I'd give it a go. I've watched it a hand full of times now and it never fails to make me laugh. It is an easy watch and would recommend to anyone who likes a good giggle ^_^ Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Whats funny is this movie was classified as a Horror film. I would have classified it as a Comedy too, because it was so incredibly stupid I laughed! I wasted an hour and a half of my already torturous schedule. Thanks David Hewitt for teaching me that I do, in fact, have a future in film making, as I am sure my skill level at the very least matches that of yours. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member hilarious with a pinch of mystery Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews
