I have been a fan of GWAR for a long time for many reasons, one of them being that for every album they put out comes another neat movie like this to go with it. With their album "America Must Be Destroyed!" as the soundtrack, this classic is nothing but sick fun from start to finish. I am amazed that they got a Grammy for this, it just seems too damn cool to get a Grammy! Eat this, Tipper! I just love every bit of it. Still, I must warn people with weak stomachs because this movie is so gross it makes Lucio Fulci look tame in comparison. Then again, who am I warning? If you know anything about GWAR, you'll most likely have enough brain cells to know that this is not going to be a Disney movie by any means! I give this my highest recommendation possible, eleven on a scale of one to ten!
GWAR was nominated for a grammy but did not win for this movie . I wonder what did , because i would find it hard to believe it was more entertaining than Phallus , in fact any GWAR movie (and there are quite a few ) would probably be better . i still own the original VHS tape purchased in the early 90's . my favorite part , and there are many , is near the beginning when the kid gets hit by (GWAR's manager)Sleazy P. Martini's limo and he begs to meet GWAR . Sleazy says OK and a giant hook comes from the sky to pull the boy to GWAR's lair . We then see BalSac the jaws of death reeling him in like fish . THE ACTION BEGINS THERE AND NEVER LETS UP . Buy this movie and all GWAR's movies .

Gwar's lead singer, Oderous Urungus, searches for his lost "Cuttlefish" which is being held by the leader of the Morality Squad, Edna P. Granbo. Due to GWAR's decadent lifestyle, Granbo is obsessed with the destruction of GWAR.
Well if you like GWAR then you are sure to love this. It has a collection of GWAR songs compiled around a story of the lead singer loosing his penis, so GWAR go on the search for it. Has blood, violence and the songs are cool. What more do you want?. I remember years ago taking this into my art class at school and putting it on for the class, including the teacher. Watched the whole thing too!! Ah those where the days...
Gwar has been making quality work since they arrived to this planet and yet they have failed to be recognized for the genius's that they are. In this masterpiece Oderus' manhood is stolen from him by a member of the morality team and he and his cohorts go on all sorts of crazy adventures in order to get it back. This film is not for the faint at heart and it leaves nothing to the imagination. The only thing that may have bettered it would have been to add in the Jesus dunking clip from the mtv elusive video "Meat Sandwich"

Like Percival's quest for the grail, I have come upon this piece of cinematic transgression after endless peril. Like the other video nasty that has paraded before my eyes, the arbitrary rock band Gwar has created such a work that will cause endangered animals everywhere to hide (watch out Emmett Otter, and hide your Jug-band)... I could make a joke like, this was Magical Mystery Tour crossed with Don't Look Back for the 90's, or that the intro was reminiscent of the protestors in Zabriskie Point (some reviewers would give better notes to Gwar). Instead I will say this, for those whose gaze must seek out all the underground trash video, after watching Phallus in Wonderland do me two favors: take a long shower, and watch Vincente Minelli's Meet Me in St. Louis, okay, thank you, good night...
