A strange tale involving heroin, a family of people who are mentally retarded and Jewish and French (but not at the same time), and a Sixth Dimension ruled over by a midget king. Featuring music by the Mystical Knights of the Oingo Boingo. Yeah, you want to see it now, I know.
Some people are going to be put off my this film because it is black and white, has weird music and animation, and the production cost was probably three dollars. But for those who like cult movies or want to see the seed that is Danny Elfman, this is your dream come true.
Richard Elfman (who went on to do a whole lot of nothing, apparently, besides becoming Scientologist spokeswoman Jenna Elfman's father-in-law) directs this odd blend of wacky nudity, singing, racially tasteless jokes and poorly simulated sex. Danny Elfman, who would go on to front Oingo Boingo and be a big time composer made the music, and stars as a very memorable Satan.
This film is very much in the same vein as "Rocky Horror Picture Show", though I actually prefer this film. Also, you can see how a weirdo like Tim Burton gets along with these guys.
I don't know what to say... the movie is really too weird to describe. A woman who sings in French, a topless princess, chained up fat ladies, a man with a frog's head... and the midget from "Fantasy Island". You really have to see it to believe it.
