I bought tickets to this movie for its premier at the Toronto After
Dark Film Festival based on the trailer alone and went in with some
trepidation after checking its IMDb rating and reading some critic
reviews on Rotten Tomatoes.
Having seen the movie tonight, I can honestly say I feel like I'm from
another planet then those reviewers. I absolutely loved this film! It
was hilarious, creepy, intelligent, and unique. I was roaring through
the whole thing, and it wasn't just me! The entire theater was rolling
in their seats! The directer, Chrispian Mills was there and I stayed
afterwords to shake his hand and tell him I am now a fan. There was a
line of people wanting do the same thing.
I made an IMDb account specifically to tell you to pay no attention to
the negative critic ratings. If you've seen the trailer and you think
it looks like something you'd enjoy, then for God sakes go see it!
