I've seen this and it's definitely worth a watch.


I've had the pleasure of seeing this film in its 16MM print thanks to many helpful resources. It's really not bad, the trailer basically lets you know what to be in store for, so if you see it and say it's horrible...well wtf were you expecting? Simply watch the trailer, it'll give you an idea whether or not you'll dig it. Of course it's a b-flick, so if you can stomach pointless plots, terrible dubbing, scenes that drag on quite a bit and a total cast of perhaps, 35 people, you can appreciate this for its rarity and not for its cinematic quality. By the trailer alone, it's quite obvious this movie had a budget of under $5,000, but I'm always impressed how movies with hardly ANY money, VERY limited casts and not much experience in filmmaking can actually hold my attention. I actually laughed during most of the movie, it's definitely one of those films where if you watch with a bunch of friends, you'll crack up at a lot of scenes. The ending is actually unexpected and quite random. I had the 16MM print transfered onto a DVD-R until the official DVD is released. But again, it's definitely worth a watch just to say "you saw it" since it's possibly one of the rarest films to ever get a chance to see. I don't believe there are more than 30 people who have actually seen this film entirely, so take advantage! Especially if you're a massive film buff/aficionado!

i enjoyed this "documentary" a lot more than Brad Pitt's "the tree of life". at least i got quite a few laughs out of this. i wanted to hang myself after the time and money i wasted watching "the tree of life".

Make that 31, then, though I would never watch it again because of that godawful song.
