This was a horrible film. Thank goodness it was short or I would feel long-lasting regret over spending significant time on it. It's about Charles Manson and his "family," and how they come to murder the pregnant actress and her friends.The only reason that I laughed during it is actually a bad reason to laugh at a film, so it doesn't really deserve points. There were plenty of times when the director tried to get me to laugh, but every time I sat silently. I only laughed because it's a poorly done stop motion. Some of the scenes were absolutely ridiculous! I can't believe they even put them in the final project. They are so funny because they are so awful! Haha. I laughed at the movie, not its jokes, because honestly, the jokes were twisted. There are a few different types of twisted humor: there's twisted humor that's funny, and there's twisted humor that goes too far and is just disturbing. This movie has the latter. It has so much of it that I was getting tired by the end of the film. It was never funny, and as the movie kept going it became less disturbing, so it was just there, taking up time. I was bored, and frankly, annoyed that these characters were still on my screen. It is a short movie, but it felt long because it's just so damn not funny. It tries too hard, and it fails.I am going to give the movie a 10% because it actually had one good thing about it. When the scenes weren't absurdly sloppy, they were actually visually fascinating. The director used good colors, unique angles, and really kinda just trips the viewer out. During a couple of the scenes, I couldn't look away because the director's techniques were so interesting. I appreciate his work for those scenes, but the rest of the movie is so bad that I almost forgot his good points.It's dialogue is original, yes, but it's not funny. It tries too hard and just ends up disgusting and pathetic. If I had any affiliation to this film, I would change my name and pretend like I had no idea what it was. It's really that awful. It's a portrait of the horror of the human mind, that's for sure. It has one good point that is overshadowed by its many failures. I would never buy this movie. I would never even watch it again. Waste of time.

When someone comes up to you and tells you there is a claymation musical about the Manson murders you have a certain expectation built up by the time you actually track the movie down. for me that expectation was that i would be watching an irreverent dark comedy farce containing humorously gory puppet death and at the least some palpable music. sadly the only part of that sentence that holds true is the farce. the movie plays like a bad art school project from a far to pompous student body. the music was bland at best and gratingly annoying at worst. the portrayal of the characters mad absolutely no sense. the Sharon Tate character was possibly the most annoying performance ever captured on any media ever and as if that wern't bad enough, they have the gal to allow her to continue talking even after decapitation. let me say that again to get the point across. you will find yourself waiting and eventually begging for this character to be killed to silence her poorly written and voiced rants. it finally happens. she is killed along with her equally annoying friends and as your are about to slip into a joyous tirade at the prospect of never hearing that voice again... the severed heads start talking, and continue talking far longer than necessary. when the creators of the film express their confusion and distaste for what they have made on the commentary of their own film, you know you have witnessed something beyond the bouds of bad cinema. in spite of all that i have said i fully encourage you, the reader, to see this movie. by no means should you purchase it! simply view it in a quiet room. it is a life experience that no one should miss. afterwards jump in the shower, cleanse your body of its taint and go to bed knowing that you have looked into the void and you never have to do it again.

After reading some comments/reviews on the movie on this site, it's quite apparent that some people have the idea that the movie was made only to shock; the obscenity is all that's there to them. People seem to miss the dialogue in this movie because they focus too much on the "obscene and tasteless" parts. Well, there is much beyond the obscenity, and one must actually look. If, while watching the movie (actually watching it, not focusing on the explicit puppet sex or profane words) one listened to what the characters were saying, they might feel differently. The movie is a very heavy social commentary that uses satire, in a major way, to comment on a certain situation that occurs in society. It's not hard to miss, unless you specifically go into the movie expecting that the movie's only point is to shock you with as many obscene things as possible. Also, the Charlie Hanson piece is simply a manner in which to express this commentary. It's only a means to show an idea.

I saw this tonight at a mid-night show at the Alamo Drafthouse in Austin, TX. The theater was about half full, and had a good mix of Austinites (from mall-punk kids to grad students to grunge slackers, yay Austin!). All told, I think the theater laughed out loud twice during the entire film. If a midnight movie crowd in Austin isn't moved, then I don't know who would find this film amusing. Even more disconcerting than the images on the screen was the silence in the theater during this unfunny film.The filmmakers try so hard to be offensive, but along the way they forgot to check if it was actually funny. And after hearing twenty-five variations for "c0ck", "p0le", "meat drapes","hatchet wound", "a$shole","anus", etc the movie stops being funny or offensive, and merely turns into a painful joke that goes on for too long, until the point that you feel sorry for the person telling it.
