Viewing Notes
I think you either enjoy Begos’ films or you don’t and there probably isn’t a lot lot of middle ground out there. I fall into the camp of people that do; that being said, this feels like a lesser effort than some of his bigger movies like BLISS, VFW and CHRISTMAS BLOODY CHRISTMAS. It was still a great way to end the festival because it’s so over the top and non-stop insanity, all packed into a tight 76 minutes. It does get a little tedious by the end but still a fun watch. I really appreciate the effort he and his crew put into films like this.
It’s pretty funny that I’ve seen every one of Begos’ feature films at a festival! His first two at FF, BLISS at Cinepocalypse, and the last three at Telluride.
