An attempt was made.
Worth a watch
what the hell did i watch. so confused
It has some campy moments that made it ok for a one-time background watch, but this really was pretty bad. I've seen worse, but I would not recommend. I love a pretty broad spectrum of horror, from artsy/surreal cinematic masterpieces to so-bad-they're-good cheap trash, and I'm pretty forgiving of flaws, but this. . . ugh. Tonally confused, mediocre to terrible script, and felt like chore to watch.
It’s a good movie. A little Kill Bill, a little Kung Fu Hustle. The costumes and set were amazing.
