Saw it for the 1st time..LOVED it!


I really enjoyed this flick! Has a staple of dirty, grimy, NYC "grindhouse-ish" filmmaking plastered all over it! LOVED it! Enjoyed this much, much more then Brain Damage!

I've read about this film for years and must say I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed it. Not only that the movie is a Times Square time capsule!

Just saw it via Netflix streaming and I too enjoyed the dirty, low-rent nature of the flick. The acting was laughably bad but in a good way and the stop motion stuff was a lot of fun as well. I expected it to be a lot worse and didn't expect to feel so badly for poor little Belial.

I loved the film as well. I felt very sorry for Duane and Belial. I can tell they really loved and cared about one another, but people's inability to accept anything different in regards to Belial forced them apart. They had every right to be angry at the doctors who forced them to do something they obviously didn't want to.

Come, fly the teeth of the wind. Share my wings.
