Viewing Notes

Though I didn’t remember much of it, I was pretty sure I’d seen this before once the movie started, and I was right. Regardless, holy shit is this weird (even by my standards) and fun! I cannot believe this never got a single disc release on Blu from 88 Films before Arrow included in their Shawscope Vol. 2 box set.
