I wasn't prepared for the singing

So I've seen a few Troma films, not a big fan, but generally one knows what to expect: outrageous over-the-top gore, lots of feces and bodily fluids, nudity, prosthetic mutated genitalia, etc. This one has all of that... but the musical numbers?!? Lloyd Kaufman scores another round; the *last* thing I was expecting was for the cast to burst out in song! In a way, this was more shocking than anything else in the film. Be warned!! :)

Well, keep in mind that Troma's best-selling video continues to be 'Cannibal! The Musical'...

I was aware it'd be a musical since the film was announced, and I for one actually liked the songs...it made the movie stranger than it already was. Provided, none of them were really, um, *tuneful*, to say the least, except for "Slow Fast Food Love", which was wonderful. :)

I think Slow Fast Food Love was great!!

The rest of them...eh...could have lived without them.

The movie would have been 100x better without the musicals.

The chicken massacre was brilliant. I loved it!
