Silly and confusing movie about an average working-class man who becomes a serial killer and cannibal.
The main character's motive is a little thin, and you can't help wondering why he over-reacts as he does. I suppose they're trying to make a comment on the idea that "the way to a man's heart is through his stomach", but even that would be hard to argue.
It is fairly amusing, and there are some slightly gratifying moments, but overall I think you will find it fairly stupid - (just HOW he becomes a cannibal is as laboured as his motive).
The video cover made me think of melting flesh in a microwave, but I had the wrong idea. All I can say is that there is much more focus on the refrigerator/freezer than the microwave oven. And there's not as much cannibalism as there is sex. (How is he having so much sex?!)
