Pluskylang Great Film overall
ChicRawIdol A brilliant film that helped define a genre
Hulkeasexo it is the rare 'crazy' movie that actually has something to say.
Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
