    • Alternate versions
      The version screened at film festivals was about 2 minutes longer than the one released later on blu-ray. The cuts include a lot of bits of scenes and dialogue (usually only about a few seconds) throughout the whole movie and were made for better pacing.

    Over-the-top but entertaining
    You can't really expect much from this film but for a film that had such a low budget, it was done very well. OK, it's not a film I would recommend to everybody or anybody really. It is extremely gory, perverse and very weird. But I won't say I wasn't entertained.

    The hero of the story plays two different characters: a bad-ass you can cheer on and a fool you can laugh at. The supporting characters are all quite similar to the latter but they do have their heroic moments. The villain is pretty much the most vile and disgusting human being I have ever seen on film which does make an example of a true villain when it comes to exploitation films.

    The film is presented in a very grindhouse style fashion which is good because we know it actually a b-movie rather than a movie with a big budget to get well known actors and getting a b-movie style. The soundtrack is also very good and fits into the film very well, especially the rock songs.

    Overall it's hard to say much else about this film. To me, it was just an entertaining film with a simple plot, black humour and extreme shock value.
