This is by far one of the darkest movies I've ever watched. Within the first 10 minutes of the movie witness the delusions of Stockholm Syndrome. Not long after, comes the complete meltdown of a war vet alienated by PTSD. "IT'S MY FUNCTION," as he puts it.
Continue watching for allusions toward the superficial and lonely stage of a Hollywood star (or should I say, flower), organ trade (pawnshop), and my favorite part of the movie where a junkyard, featuring the song, "Worthless" serves metaphor to retirement homes.
Retirement homes are presented as a junkyard in this movie. Think long and hard about that before calling this a children's movie.
The antagonist is a child, "Master" of a group of home appliances each suffering from unique mental illnesses including but not limited narcissism, anxiety/panic attacks, depression, dissociative identity disorder, and co-dependency.
It's a disturbing tale brilliantly disguised as a children's movie.
