LastingAware The greatest movie ever!

Yash Wade Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

Abegail Noëlle While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

Woodyanders Gleefully poking fun at anything and everyone with a certain jolly vigor that's both anarchic and misanthropic in equal measure, fiercely iconoclastic micro-budget filmmaker Bill Zebub's supremely bent and inspired (mis)use of dolls and action figures in this low-fi indie comedy romp warrants praise not just for its sheer audacity and unflinching perversity (yes, the dolls do engage in all kinds of deviant and often disgusting carnal acts and are indeed anatomically correct), but also for its joyful willingness to thumb its satiric nose at politics, religion, pop culture, gung-ho military jerks, and American society in general. The extremely daft plot has President George Bush drinking the blood of Jesus Christ in order to gain immortality (Christ is revealed here as the very first vampire!). Meanwhile, Adolf Hitler, Osama Bin Laden, and Saddam Hussein all plot to take over the world while a bunch of army guys go on a merry killing spree. The blithely rude, profane, and raunchy no-holds-barred humor sure ain't subtle or sophisticated, but it's frequently wickedly amusing in an admittedly crude and silly way just the same (the bad rock group that's enacted by KISS dolls is especially uproarious!). Complete with many send-ups of famous television shows and motion pictures (said spoofs include "Jaws," "Cannibal Holocaust," "Planet of the Apes," "Psycho," "Star Trek," and even "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer"), plus broad caricatures of popular religious and political figures, set to a roaring hard rock soundtrack, with a hilarious disclaimer by a King Diamond doll at the start and a gut-busting climactic clarification of the barely coherent narrative, and loaded to the overflowing brim with more vile sex acts, moments of rancid gore and cruel torture, and all-out nasty degeneracy than you can shake a Barbie doll at, this gloriously loopy and deranged flick provides a wealth of major belly laughs at the welcome expense of good taste and social propriety. A total riot.

autonutter This could easily (and wrongly) be seen as a 'poor man's' Team America, but anybody who watches this and thinks that, is either not actually watching it or not getting the point of this movie! This, before anybody starts slamming it for racism or political criticism, is not poking fun at anybody in particular but everyone! That's the point of a successful 'offencive' comedy...to just offend everyone (a film that chooses to pick on racism as a form of offencive comedy can be seen as nothing more than a sick gesture of hatred against a certain type of people). This film is not one made through sheer hatred for everything, but the desire to make the world more tolerable by taking the *beep* out of it! And to be honest I can't see a more fitting thing to do, since I have seen no proof thus far of the notion that life is actually serious! It just makes it funnier seeing mock ups of Jesus, the Pope and Hitler acting out a bizarre and complex yet surprisingly well thought out, and insanely comic storyline.It's use and abuse of a few typical Hollywood clichés had me laughing out loud in their deliberately ironic situations, which is made even funnier by the fact that it's played out by action figures (I wet myself laughing at the inspired 'SS Enterprise'). The violence and gore has a potential to be sickening but again is made amusing and entertaining in the circumstances and some of the sequences, you'll just not believe your eyes that these 'innocent' action figures are doing what they are on the screen! The log cabin scene at the beginning springs to mind and a lot of the character's execution scenes, though the barbie dolls on pikes is quite jarring, I have to say. Though, I'll leave it at that so as not to spoil it too much for you.It's actually quite funny, because for the people that didn't get it, or for the ones who prefer their stories "spoon-fed" and easy to digest there's an explanation at the end (I have to confess that I, myself found this rather helpful for filling in bits that I didn't get...just because I'm quite stupid though...the shame).I wish I could do this, and Bill Zebub's movies more justice, but my jumbling of words and general blabbering I feel, cannot do them as much service as I would've liked. He shreds (albeit with a machete) the rule book and churns out severely underrated underground films that challenge viewers (in a way that is sadly lacking from an awful lot of films now) to re think what we call entertainment and give the middle finger to all the artists who want to stick to conventions and rules who will always be, due to the current public mentality, unjustifiably more highly classed than this kind of film maker.Anyway...approach these films (especially Dolla Morte!!) with an incredibly open mind, if you don't...you just won't get it. Serverly entertaining and offencive in all the right ways!
