I really wanted to love this movie, and there were things here and there that I really enjoyed (the tattoos on the "Sprockets" - Cecil's henchpeople - of their favorite directors, the aforementioned credits [if you see the movie, you MUST pay attention to the opening credits], the insults directed at mainstream cinema, etc...), but as a whole, I was disappointed. The worst thing about this movie is that it almost made me wanna see some cheesy mainstream flick to get the really bad movie stink off...
I mean, I guess to some extent the movie was supposed to be bad... But it wasn't a good bad, it was just BAD. And the few good scenes made the rest of the movie seem even worse.
If you wanna see a non-mainstream movie, go see one of the movies by the directors that are tattooed on the henchpeople - the one name that sticks with me is Pedro Almodovar. Can't go wrong with any of his stuff.
