    La la love you...

    Feeling nostalgic for an over the top 90s trailer trash romcom? You can do better, but why not dumpster dive! Plus, the soundtrack is actually pretty killer.

    Strangest opening scene... then it starts to get weird!

    Some of the most unusual dialog I've ever heard!! And delivered perfectly by all concerned! This film was grand, campy fun. Definitely unique!!

    Just when you think you know exactly where the film is headed, it suddenly takes an oblique turn, with hilarious results.

    Another member used the phrase: "Side-Splitting Sleaze..." I consider that comment accurate and a compliment to the movie. I totally agree!

    The subject matter is adult and the language is often profane. These characters are... um, interesting people, who say and do what they want, when they want. So this film isn't for everyone... But, if you like strangeness and enjoy laughing, this is a great movie for you.

    Outrageous Excitement & Candid Characters!

    Wow, what can i say, i LOVE this movie. I've watched it several times, i own it. The characters are so magnified and bold, u can't help but stare at them in awe. There are so many great lines in this movie - it never leaves you bored or understimulated...well, with a borderline psycho/stripper/nympho and a trailer park full of fun how is that possible? I particularly enjoy the striking looks of Max Parrish--where is he since this movie?! And I am also a huge Sabra fan! She is the best. Ex.) "All I have to do is a few pornos, a few beaver shots in Hustler, and then i'll be like the BEST gymnastics instructor at your local YMCA!" ; "Come on titty-f*ck me u know you hate your mother!" Who couldn't love THAT?!!!! RENT THIS MOVIE, SUPPORT THIS MOVIE. Visit your local trailer park today and you will have acquired a newfound respect for its unique brand of culture.

    WAY over the top...and excellent

    Eli (Max Parrish) accidentally shoots unstable "Twinkle" (Sean Young) after she tries to force him to marry her (at gunpoint). He hides out in a trailer park and becomes involved with an abusive crazy stripper (Andrea Naschak), her sweet kind sister (Adrienne Shelly) and various crazy characters.

    An unjustly forgotten black (VERY black) comedy. There's no holds barred but it never crosses the line to become too black. It's well-directed with some VERY strange characters, hysterically funny dialogue, plenty of nudity (even Parrish shows some skin) and all done with gusto by the entire cast. Parrish is tall, handsome and hunky as Eli--the one sane person in the movie. Young isn't in it much but she makes her scenes count. Naschak is OK (if a little too vicious) and Shelly manages to play it sweet and light without becoming too cloying. Also Diane Ladd (who must have been hired for one days work) has a few short scenes.

    It's sick but funny as hell. Sample line: "I guess killing your sister, burying your dog and losing your virginity all in one day is a lot for a girl". It's a shame this was barely released and got no attention and STILL remains that way to this day 13 years later. Just great! I give this a 10.

    Side-Splitting Sleaze

    The director allegedly vowed to make the sleaziest movie he could as a condemnation of Hollywood. He succeeded admirably, but it feels more like homage to me.

    Dialogue example: "I guess killing your sister, burying your dog, and losing your virginity all in one day is a lot for a girl."

    I am not from the it's-so-bad-it's-good school of movie watching. "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes" or even "Faster Pussycat, Kill Kill" (which, by the way, is saluted in this film), has always been just too stoner-stupid for my taste. However, if you create off this concept, well. . .

    This film is shot in the colors of sleaze--from Sabra's day-glow spandex to the hues of the trailer court. Everything is there to enhance the camp. This is side-spliting sleaze all the way. I mean, how about the scene where he takes Danni out to dinner with handcuffs on? Or, Sabra's come-on line, "down deep I'm a sensitive and vulnerable girl. Don't let my vibrators and dildos fool you."

    Symbolism? How 'bout the Barbie dolls?

    Inference with Import? How 'bout the scene where pink-spandexed Sabra walks Gus down the SPCA promenade of death? That'll make you give up topless bars and stroke mags, man.

    Hidden treat? Buy the soundtrack. It'll fit nicely next to "Copulatin' Blues"

    Weak link? Timmy Leary. The only acting he does effectively is playing dead.
