About

You may enjoy this if you like offbeat horror-comedy with sleazy, bizarre energy in the vein of Brain Damage; Not for you if grotesque creature antics, campy weirdness, or uneven tonal swings sound exhausting.

Pros: wild campy humor; imaginative oddball creatures; more heart than expected | Cons: messy tone shifts; less gritty than original; too silly for some
