Heaven is a beautiful, clean suburban paradise as long as they follow one simple rule: DO NOT communicate with "The Evil One" that dwells on the other side of a giant wall that circles the town. One day after chasing one he discovers a talking kitten with a broken leg a small child crawls through a hole in the wall and meets the Evil One, who attempts to teach him the forbidden knowledge that was previously hidden from them all.

This is a story steep with symbolism and criticism of religion. It made my head hurt trying to figure out the point to this whole mess which seems to be pointless and various in it messages. Marius is a child who lives in Heaven, a cult community who worship Caine. Marius has a friend Eden and is taught by Mr. Apple. A talking kitten convinces our two children to pass through a whole in the wall, a forbidden act, because an evil female lives there, If it sounds a lot like Genesis. The black birds are also involved as is sex and sexual symbolism. It made my head hurt sober. Might work as the third feature in a Fritz the Cat film festival.Guide: F-word, sex, nudity. An animated film most people will love or hate.

I don't understand this movie it's like this guy had a really bad acid trip in 2010 came back to himself a whole two years later thought hey lets make my trip into a movie took even more acid went into a coma and 4 years later came out of it and all his team was like basically brain dead from all the acid they had to take to make it so they subbed in crack, and finally after naming it when black birds fly because why not that's the only understandable thing in this whole movie then after like at least a dozen people basically wanted to die after watching it they couldn't make it to theaters and just decided to release it to some second hand stream site that doesn't have anything good from the last decade

Albeit not nearly as disturbing as "where the dead go to die" this one is a solid work full of black humor, hallucinogenic imagery and religious parallels. The voice acting is far superior to its predecessor, sounding much like any major production whereas I felt wtdgtd definitely fell short. Soundtrack is very well done creating an excellent atmosphere for the trippy visuals. Gore and shock value seemed a bit toned down, but none the less still has plenty of good kills and splatter throughout. Sexual imagery is prevalent within the film although the male characters are equipped the equivalence of a Ken doll, which makes for some awkward sex scenes. The trademark animation seems to be improved on with less glitchy movement and flowed smoother altogether. The story struck me as an exaggerated jab at religion with sacrilegious themes. I enjoyed this movie and look forward to seeing what's next from Mr. Screamerclauz.
