The result is kind of a mess, but an intriguing one; it's not a very good movie, but you don't stop watching it.

I saw this when i was like 8 years old and liked it back then, re-watched it now (im 21) and i really enjoyed it. Very 90's feel to the flick and the acting is top notch.Highly recommended.
