Not good

[r3i6nm8n2002 · 1/10 · 23 May 2006]

Certainly one of the most bizarre "movies" I have ever seen. What was the point. It just seems like a mess thrown together. We have a character who plays six different people. I commend the man for trying to make a film but at least try. It just seems that for a while we are watching the same exact thing which we are. I actually had some people who also watched the film say what the hell are we watching. Most everyone I have talked to has agreed, what was the point of the whole movie.

Not good at all.

Definitely avoid this at all costs. It just isn't worth the ninety minutes of time. Overall a 1 out of 10.

VERY Good!

Wow! You can't be looking for a Hollywood film with this title. It's more like late-night TV from some really weird old UHF station. Gilbert Hernandez plays "Quintas," a guy who is like some old time monster movie show host - if you remember those. Elvira was like one of those hosts, and lots of places had them.

The film is cheaply made, but it's pretty funny if you're a fan of totally weird film experiences. If you like strange films and experiences in front of the tube that really make you wonder - and laugh while you do it - then this one is for you! I am totally fascinated with it - Quintas and his friend "Zansky" show these really short microfilms about one minute long - completely surreal! Then there is all the action with Quintas and his clone/brother Kalisto, who is like the evil scientist version of Quintas - who is kind of new-agey and mystical.

I say watch it and go with the flow - don't be afraid of something that is unusual. Watch it late at night with friends the way you'd watch an old horror film from the 1950s or a Godzilla movie.

And by the way - the fight scene is really funny at the end. Don't miss that part!
