Wonderful film. Right from the DVD options sequence and excellent credits this film delights. The rich atmosphere of the wonderful sets and glorious characterization are a joy. The house above the butchers shop is a wonderful symphony of the bizarre. The box-spring testing scene is an all time classic - very funny. If my memory serves me correctly it is kind of a cross between Little shop of Horrors and Sweeney Todd. A Futuristic theme with a feel of yesteryear. Beneath this is a simple plot and a sweet love story.

Up there with Jamon Jamon for craziness.

Watch out for the Trogladytes!
