From the creators of the brilliant Manborg, this horror comedy came out the same year (no idea which one they made first). For a while, I was convinced this was a lesser product. The plot's a little convoluted and, up front, the jokes weren't quite landing. But then it started to click, and, holy crap, this is absolutely fantastic! I was laughing so hard I was crying at some points. It's imaginative as Hell and actually really well made. These guys know what they're doing. The plot revolves around three men, an eyepatched vigilante (Adam Brooks), a priest who's lost his faith (Matthew Kennedy) and a manwhore (Conor Sweeney), who join up to put a stop to a notorious father raper and murderer known as Fuchman (Mackenzie Murdock). Troma produced this (it's alternate title is Troma's Father's Day), and Troma founder Lloyd Kaufman appears as God. Troma's made some fun stuff before, but this is probably the best thing they've ever put their name on. I can't wait for the next Astron-6 film, the giallo spoof The Editor.
