I love this movie. I have no idea what it's doing on Shudder, since it is not horror. But, I love it. Gregg Araki is my all-time favorite director and this is a solid entry from him.

A pretty decent bisexual softcore porn movie with, like, twenty minutes of half-assed conspiracy theory bullshit tacked on at the end. Could have used more gay sex.

I love this movie so much. The entire film is a beautifully directed, wonderfully styled and paced send-up of genre mashups and the notion of "plot" itself. The ending is perfect. And it's hilarious from start to crazy finish. Gregg Araki is a genius.

I love everything about this movie — Gregg Araki's flawless direction above all, but also the look/feel/pacing/comedy/satire/acting and above all the ending. It's just such a great fucking time.
