What can only be described as the directors best attempt at a Pink Flamingos inspired exploitation film centered around his brainchild franchise. It's juvenile, bloated, the dialog is almost so unintelligible that one could imagine there was no script at all and the actors instead improved their way through the meandering plot that makes true B films like the Room seem like a summer blockbuster by comparison.
