Audience Member Tries very hard to satirize moral corruption and succeeds only in being a numbingly eccentric melodrama about lawlessness and disorder. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member brilliant satire poking fun at the legal system.. makes an interesting comment about local justice. one man builds his own electric chair to make up for the short comings of the justice system... but is he killing the right guy, and is it right? Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews
