IIRC, this was Wide's original title for discussion about this film. Not a great film, and it's very slow, but it has its moments and its quotables. It's better the second time around, once you expect the slow pace. The homage to oddness and the dry humor make this one worthwhile.

nothing makes this one worthwhile. My review, were i to bother to write one, would include in it the phrase "blows monkey chunks" somewhere along the way

SK I was home today and this was on Cinimax so I decided to see what all the talk was about, man was I disapointed, am I missing something here, would it help if I were stoned watching it?, I just didn't get it although the second half was better than the first 50 minutes/hour.

It grows on you, especially when you know what to expect.

metirish - "...am I missing something here, would it help if I were stoned watching it?" More like a lobotomy.

It grows on you, so does a fungus.
