Basically a redneck drive-in movie in style and delivery.

The movie plays like a series of scene outlines -- ideas for how the movie should progress -- that needed more writing and revision before the actors were called in.

A wonderfully weird two hours.

It's a very dialogue centric movie, characteristic of other great comedies from the'90s indie circuit.

Bobcat Goldthwait's first (and worst) cinematic outing...
November 18, 2016 | Rating: 1/4 | Full Review… -
Clearly achieves what Goldthwait wanted it to, and the unapologetic bluntness of it is itself worthy of praise, however awkward and squeamish.

Sep 06, 2010This movie is a bit weird, but that's what I love about it. Goldthwait has a weird dark sense of humor, and it really makes this movie unique. There is also an interesting cast, as you can see on here, it's made up of a bunch of people you never expected to see in a film together. Anyway, if you like strange comedies, you'll like this one.Aj V Super Reviewer
