a tribute to "Freaks"???, 2 September 2006
5/10
Author: TheatreX from Louisville, KY

This was supposedly made as a sort or tribute to Tod Browning's early 1930's movie "Freaks", but you couldn't prove it by me. The earlier film did show many freaks of nature but it also looked into their lives a bit and showed that they were well cared for and taken care of. Here, instead of any insight, we're treated to loads of filler: a carnival being assembled, a carnival being disassembled, people riding on various attractions, eating, etc. It's all accompanied by jazzy sort of music and on occasion it will break into something almost twangy and surf-like, but it's all filler, really. Now it seems like this waitress who has grown tired of her job at some nothing little café quit and joined the carnival and married the man that owns the freak show, but she has been making little side excursions to hop into the sack with one of the "roughies", the guy that runs the ferris wheel. When she's caught with him her hubby gets stabbed and dies and she's in charge, but not for long, because she's rather cruel and heartless. Of course she's set upon by the other side-show attractions and becomes one of her own. This at least has a good look and feel to some of it, but it seemed to have quite a long run time and most of that was padding. OK for a rainy afternoon or something but nothing to treasure forever in your collection. 5 out of 10.
