Reviews

FrogGlace In other words,this film is a surreal ride.
ChampDavSlim The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.
Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Allissa .Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
