Audience Member A rather funny film, if you can ignore the very poor at times production quality. The boom mic makes more appearances than some of the actors!!! lololol. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Cute little indie movie-movie. One of those with a lot of unrealized potential, though. Enjoyable enough. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Even William Shatner cannot help this turkey to be bad in a good way... Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Great piece of film. I've watched twice already but it just gets funnier. "Did you know that all of chapter 5 in the Panasonic VCR manual is written in iambic patemeter?!" Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member william shatner as an escaped mental patient? should not be missed... Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member The greatest movie EVER...and edited by the greatest editor on the planet! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Read all reviews
