A whiskey stream of consciousness review.
My Amazon parrot Squatcho picked this one out and he hated it. I however was pleasantly surprised considering the grade D budget and that it is shot on video with poor transfer quality. A serial killer stalks the seedy San Francisco drug and punk rock underworld. It is feasting on brains, sucking them out through its victim's eye sockets. Plenty of quirky and sometimes low brow humor such as the Forensic scientist who performs the brain autopsy has a lazy, sleepy eye...nice casting choice. As you would expect, there is a lot of overacting and silly dialogue, but also some surprisingly well acted moments. Most notably, there is some pretty good chemistry between Jean Michaelson (Kate Alexander) and Inspector Alonzo Bernardo (Jonathan Zeichner). Who would have thought the trust and budding romance would work in this sorta cheese?! Love the appearance of the seminal punk band The Nuns who perform as "Disease". Not on too many lists, but they should be. Would have loved to see them with Flipper back in the day. Overall fun movie that will at least keep your interest and you may even find it amusing, including the ridiculous ending. Without giving it away, they might call this one "Kuato's revenge". My only regret (or blessing) is that it doesn't appear the filmmakers made too many other films.
Slurped down with a dram of John J. Bowman. Cheers!
