DO NOT WATCH THIS MOVIE WHILE DRINKING MILK
24 September 2000
DO NOT WATCH THIS MOVIE WHILE DRINKING MILK... unless you enjoy the sensation of milk spraying out your nostrils. It's THAT funny!

It's rare to see an intentionally "BAD" movie that is actually FUNNY. This movie is so over-the-top with its cheezy special-effects, lame acting, totally inept storytelling, and just plain DUMBNESS, it'll make your head spin with laughter. I've made all my friends sit and watch it with me at least once, and they've all LOVED it. It's simply BRILLIANT! I watch it once or twice a year just to put life into perspective.

If you love this movie, also check out two other fantastic films: Richard Elfman's "FORBIDDEN ZONE" and John Paizs' "THE BIG CRIMEWAVE"

Crime Wave (1985)
10/10
A glimpse into the mind of an artist
24 September 2000
I've seen this brilliant film at least ten times, and always marvel at the way director John Paizs captures the ambition, self-doubt, and frustrations of artists. I'm a professional artist myself, and find it hard not to identify with Stephen Penny, a quiet man, who aspires to be the greatest color crime movie maker in the world.

Beautiful, touching, weird, inspiring, and fall-down funny!

One of the best films about the artistic process ever. For everyone who ever dreamed of reaching THE TOP!
