It has been suggested that this film is sort of a commentary on the boilerplate, generic horror films Hollywood has been cranking out over the years, but in 1995? Heck, those guys hadn't seen nuthin', yet. Aside from that, how is it commentary when the film itself is about as boring and generic as the stuff it is criticizing? After about 30 minutes this thing gets to be pretty tiring and, to be perfectly honest, watching some chick get raped by a beaver and have her head blown off by a bazooka would have breathed some life into it, had they bothered to show that scene. The whole concept of Ed losing his mind from watching violent movies doesn't work at all, especially how it is portrayed in this film and, for some reason, the way the dialogue and lame humor comes across made me think of Ren & Stimpy, possibly because that show was still part of pop culture in 1995 and was also lame and I hated it. It's a decent time-killer and I've seen worse but, like the generic Hollywood crapola it attempts to parody, I'll probably never watch it again.
