Audience Member Remember ADAPTATION when Nicolas Cage is describing a scene in his screenplay where it's a serial killer on a motorcycle being chased by a cop on a horse... in essence: Motorcycle vs. Horse? THIS - IS - THAT - MOVIE! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Remember ADAPTATION when Nicolas Cage is describing a scene in his screenplay where it's a serial killer on a motorcycle being chased by a cop on a horse... in essence: Motorcycle vs. Horse? THIS - IS - THAT - MOVIE! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member Steckler is adept at killing thrills, trying patience and exhibiting a very American & masturbatory sense of filmmaking. Lacking talent but with camera-in-hand, as long as it's in the can it's a movie. All of Steckler is bad, but the bad got better after this. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Pretty fun little flick. Cash Flagg is pretty good at lookin like a psycho. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member This is like Russ Meyer Lite. It's fun, but forgettable. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Very fine trash from our Mr. Steckler, famed for "Rat Fink A Boo Boo" and "The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living and Became Mixed-Up Zombies". Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Read all reviews
