The worst fever dream imaginable.
I love shudder for allowing me to see this endlessly quotable arthouse softcore nonsense in full remastered glory! I find this so entertaining but could not confidently recommend it to anybody without them thinking I'm a pervert.
Absolutely bonkers.
I'm struggling to give this one a rating - it's visually spectacular (and disturbing) and plays out more like a stage show than a movie. There is sort of a story which you can just about follow and the characters are memorably bizarre. On the other hand there's a lot going on which seems to be just weird for weirdness sake. I think its helped by a short run time, if it had gone on much longer I'm not sure I would have made it.
Every scene in this movie is quotable. It's chaotic and campy.
