Odd. Crazy. Confusing. But I had to keep watching to see what it was all about. I didn't skip anything and I watched into the credits. I have no idea. The performances were good. I've seen the odd obscure experimental theatre production (usually after a couple of beers) and this was in that realm. It was strangely enjoyable.
If you started watching the movie, got confused and irritated and then decided to check IMDb for reviews, just in case you are missing something.
Some puzzle piece that will make this mess into a coherent experience - well, I hate to break it to you, but there isn't one.
The only way for this film to be perceived as "good" is if you genuinely want to take a dive into a delirium.
Summary: It's bad, it doesn't get better to the end, no answers or 'endings' will be happening.
P.S. I hate "10 lines minimum" policy. This sht shtick doesn't deserve 10 lines.

Now that was a completely different role for him. An understated gangster. Dangerous in the way of David Lynch, where there is this undercurrent of tension across his scenes that could explode at any point. Only thing is that I wish they utilized him more as the central villain of the movie, and let him really take over ala Dennis Hopper or Willem Dafoe. Glover is showing mastery across several of his scenes as the canonical villain, sowing psychological discord, and planning to make off with the cash.
I dont know how to rate it... video effects was like from 80. Even i can do better effects on video, but acting was good. The creators really tried to do their best.
This is the kind of German Expressionism meets Art-Deco Kitsch that was popular with low-budget guerrilla filmmakers and artsy porn directors in the eighties, and even then not so much. Style-over-substance without any discernible style other than pseudo-fifties-steam-punk, this is what would happen if you gave a first-year film student a six-figure budget. If you attempt to hang on through the first twenty minutes or so hoping that a semblance of structure or cohesion will begin to take hold of what loosely passes for a plot, you'll just wind up more disappointed. You'd be better off digging up an old copy of Meet the Hollowheads or Terrorvision. Even Cafe Flesh would feel like a step up from this.
