SOCIETY
Weird, weird, weird
And I mean that in the nicest way, of course.
My first reaction to this film was one of complete horror - not because of the events or the premise, but to find that the star (and the guy I'm supposed to be sympathizing with) is played by That Guy! Augh! The horror!
That Guy turns out to be Billy Warlock, one of several people responsible for blighting our world with Baywatch. (a trip to the IMDb shows that he has credits in Halloween II and one of my absolute least favorite movies, Lovely But Deadly) Awful actor.
Anyway, thankfully, the film overcomes this guy. And what we end up with is a seriously fucking strange look at an upper crust that makes that in They Live look like the kids next door.
Get ready for body-contorting, anal-impaling incest orgies! More than one person has a fist enter their rectum and exit their head. How'd you like to look between your mom's legs and find...your sister?
I'd expected a more overtly humorous movie, but except for lots of mocking laughter, no sense of humor shows up until near the conclusion of the film. This definitely appears to be the result of director Brian Yuzna watching a little too much Cronenberg. But that's okay. Because Cronenberg rocks, baby.
Watch it with a date...if you want to ensure never hearing from your date again. It's that good.
