To say this is a “Dark Comedy” is an understatement!!.. If you read some of the reviews you would think I’m not wasting my time, however I can tell you from first hand experience its one of those “what the fuck am I seeing here” types of films that keeps you attention.

The first hour of this film is intriguing and carries you to the implausibility of its second hour….and then onto to a shocking conclusion.

If you are looking for the “ODD & UNUSUAL” give this a look…….you just may find it a interesting as I did.
