bizarre film that no-one i know has either seen or heard of, yet somehow i've managed to see it twice on very late night TV...! one of the oddest films i've ever come across, but definitely worth watching - you simply will never have come across anything so bizarre. which makes it interesting. i'm not quite sure what conclusions one is meant to draw from the film - the idea of three women keeping a grown man in a state of perpetual infancy could lead one in a number of directions, none of them particularly pleasing. this film borders on horror, but settles into a fairly straightforward uncanniness that seems to be heightened by the early 70s hippy-style crazy music and clothing. i awarded this a 7 - difficult to know how to rate it, since i wouldn't call it a great film by usual standards, but for sheer weirdness it's outstanding.
