wow, i got the same vibe, i also wished i had come across it sooner, i just got it on an amazing dvd set, i love all the movie references which for some reason get the villagers to loosen up, considering the director and light beginning this got bloody and serious fast with shocking effect, it's quite dark and intriguing, you really feel terrible for this kid, it's quite a rich movie, but i really do wish i had come across it when i was a teen, the kid's girlfriend comes off as much more mature than him, maybe because she's got a british accent (yes i know that's not really an accent but proper english), or maybe because she's a nurse and he's a backpacker with an interests of horror flicks, the old movie references just keep coming throughout the movie, landis seem like quite the passionate moviemaker, and hardly surprising the movie features a great soundtrack (one amazingly opens the dvd menu). i love the look on the boys face as he takes his balloons, i'm guessing he couldn't keep a straight face and they kept it in the movie. frank oz, kermit and miss piggy were the only ones i recognised in the entire movie. end sure was abrupt and actually quite moving, the special effects are a riot, it's a real mix of great fun, neat effects, and horror. guaranteed to entertain.

god gave that angel to my soul,
to follow me along,
until time for her to step off,
part of the puzzle as i go,
now i got no one here to play with,
left with shallow surroundings.
