Viewing Notes
Having not seen this until now I mostly enjoyed this flick. It’s a bit strange how it unfolds as I was never entirely certain the motivations on either side. Yeah, I get Fool being trapped in the house so I suppose he’s just trying to get out and discovering all this weird shit along the way. But the rest isn’t clear. The ending is also off. So the mutants just leave, I guess?
I think I’d have more fun watching this at The Massacre in packed theater. Seems like that kind of movie.
