I want to die after seeing this film.

DISREGARD the other reviews, no really, its for your own good. This movie...imagine needing to take a massive dump ALL DAY, and then being chained just out of reach of a toilet. That, good people is the sensation this film instills in its audience/victims. There's...its...just...far out. I was in tears. AS IF there's no ZERO, half a star is being VERY GENEROUS. Seriously its like the crew confiscated the Ritalin and pointed the camera at the ensuing hi-jinx. The director has clearly lived in a box and learned his 'funnies' from a small rip giving him a glimpse at a kindergarten. ABYSMAL. WOEFUL. CRUEL AND UNUSUAL. I bet this was a big hit at Guantanamo Bay, or perhaps a cruel joke Death Row guards play on the poor fellows that find themselves there. I felt dirty for watching this film, the awkward silences and awful props, i think they must have sold their bodies to fund the film which would explain the absence of any indications the film had any budget to speak of. Seriously this film is an EXPERIENCE, it generates a VERY VERY bad atmosphere, and instant party-killer, you're friends will hate you and egg your house if you show them this film. It's not a personal dig at them, but the previous comments have done the impossible and presented an INCORRECT opinion. The box should have a sticker warning you of the psychological crucifixion you are about to endure.
