This was one of my favourites for ages- I love the kooky "beat" dialogue, the twisty plot, the inspired casting....I have no idea why it seems to be ridiculed. It has Paul Bartel in it. PAUL BARTEL. And the guy from the New York Dolls. And Sherilyn Fenn is at her femme fatale height here.

It's been almost twenty years, but I remember seeing this on VHS tape and being really impressed. My late wife and I had a lot of fun fantastically speculating if director Alien Castle (what a name) was really David Lynch in disguise.
