    weird, obscure and not particularly good

    This looks like somebody saw a few too many midnight screenings of "Eraserhead" and said to him/herself, "Hey, I can make a weird movie like that." As if. And what an awful title! You know you're in trouble when script's written so that all the women in it are constantly chasing after the main male character (and he's as utterly unappealing as the guy in this movie is). Pretty pretentious and almost entirely lacking in interest (not to mention plot). At least some of the music is sort of interesting.

    • Trivia
      The distribution company New Concorde had to modify the synopsis in the back of the VHS box to make it more marketable . The company didn't know how to sell the movie with it's weird story. They also modified the VHS box cover art to make it look like a sex comedy hoping to boost up the sells.
