The Skin of the Teeth

I felt like i was watching a really bad scripted student film.

It started off interesting, then floundered through nothingness. I feel cheated.

Creepy cerebral thriller, like Twin Peaks. Lots of creative visuals and expansive moments to think about. Recommended viewing.

Note to self: when a film description suggests that what you are about to see is surreal, please remind yourself that what that really means is that you are about to be presented with a string of nonsensical scenes, never explained, that add up to nothing more than a waste of your time. And then go and find something else to watch. (And, no, I do not find the suggestion that our protagonist is on a mind-altering drug to be explanation enough for us to be interested in this nightmare of his.)

You know those awful amateur plays that your friends force you to go? This movie is pretty much it
