Made me want to tear my eyes and ears off. Tailor made for fat high school girls that shop at Hot Topic.

Not the worst movie of the festival (that would be Wicked Lake), but it sure wasn't good. An all-surface movie that doesn't trust the audience (they have cartoons explaining the story, followed by a song saying the exact same thing), and not a single memorable song. Nice costume and set design, though.
La Creme by bingo the clown	Sep 24th, 2008 09:24:05 AM
Isn't science fiction, it's fantasy. According to the director, the cream literally comes from Santa Clause (although that really isn't important to the story). It is a fun little flick, it's too bad that it won't get distribution in France, due to (ironically) having no stars.

Was wicked lake worse than Seventh Mood... Jesus. I think Repo did have one memorable scene when blind Sarah Brightman goes to visit Shiloh. That scene was actually really damn awesome.
Seventh Mood by bnl771	Sep 24th, 2008 10:26:22 AM
I meant Seventh Moon... But you could interpret Seventh Mood as the beyond frustrated state I was in trying to escape from that movie... but was caught waiting for my check.

WICKED LAKE is worse than SEVENTH MOON, unless you give bonus points for nudity because there's a lot of it. My only major problem with SEVENTH MOON was that I couldn't see shit. I know that was an artistic decision to, I guess, add to the immediacy of the scenario, but I think it backfired.

This is a real question, not trying to be sarcastic or anyting but - Wouldn't the fact that you "couldn't see shit" be a complete showstopper to ANY enjoyment of the movie? Doesn't it just kind of turn into radio at the point? (Okay, that was a little sarcastic.) I had the same gripe, but once I cannot see anything, I have to completely write the movie off. I would rather watch a horrendous movie I can actually SEE. The artistic decision was flawed to the worst possible degree. That level of handheld nonsense just doesn't work in the 3rd person.
