It's Friday! And what in the David Lynchian fever dream is this ....? Let's talk about:
This is a wild, wild story about a man who skins women and wears them. Now, we're horror fans so we all know the usual suspects for this behavior, but believe me when I tell you that no one is prepared for Traci Lords hunting down Ted Raimi, all while Ricki Lake is playing a trad wife - in this skinning scenario.
I call this David Lynchian because there's something else so weird and wrong with this film. Something that tickles the brain. Something that makes your brain itch and scream. Sends you into a Blue Velvet meets Eraserhead world from which you can't escape.
Is this film worth your time? Yes.
Do you know how to plan your time to watch this film? No.
However, there's just something about watching a Raimi running down a VERY '90s street in a flesh suite while shouting wildly inappropriate things that just seems to make sense during these trying times.
Gory, detailed, violent, abuse at every level, and filled with mocking behavior in every corner, this is for the dedicated horror fans who appreciate the abstract and, also a study for actors and artists who like to take their works to the limits.
Pairs with a giant, uncooked chicken and a glass of dirty water. Best watched with weirdos in a poorly furnished home - OR in an overly furnished house.
I rented this film from Scarecrow Video or use the Find It! Watch It! links to see where else you can find this wild adventure.
