Tarantino and Rob Zombie’s more charming precursor. Shockingly mean and extremely brutal, almost to an overwhelming extent.

The kind of movie that’s like that one food you can’t figure out if you like or not, so you keep wanting to taste it over and over.
Gotta love movies that have this feel. Can’t describe it.
Feels like the most unintentional and bonkers mix of Tarantino, the Coen Brothers and Monty Python but just decided to make every line alternate between them.
