Boy where to start?
The bottom line for me is that even though this film has its faults it made me laugh quite a bit, and at stuff I definitely hadn't seen before. The alcoholic war veteran being stuck in a bathroom with a clown that talks like Jar Jar Binks was a new one.
This is NOT a studio comedy, in fact I'd say its the exact opposite of that. Not so much set ups and punchlines as just raw....I don't know. Obscurity? Mayhem?
This is a tough one to describe.
Is it about 20 minutes too long? Yes.
Is the audio spectrum uneven? Yes.
Is the plot pretty aimless? Yes.
But are those not all qualities of good midnight movies?
In summation, I liked it. The first 30 minutes were pretty wild and uneven but once it hits its stride I really grew to enjoy the movies sense of humor. I didn't know two guys arguing over a bowl of cocaine was funny to me but hey, I guess it is.
It also added to the experience seeing this in a movie theater late at night (I think the screening I saw was at 10pm). Getting to see a crowds reaction to a movie like this was half of the fun. Would definitely go to a screening again.
