Review of Freaked (1993) by I Don't Know W — 20 Aug 2011

Totally insane, off the wall surreal comedy fantasy which is also a total spoof and not to be watched if your expecting anything remotely sensible haha.

Alex Winter of 'Bill n Ted' fame is the main lead in this but for the most part he is cover in some tremendous prosthetics/makeup which look both effective and kinda daft at the same time. He is joined by quite a motley crew of character actors such as Randy Quaid, Bobcat Goldthwait, Mr T, William Sadler, Brook Shields and a cameo from Sam Raimi, watch out for Keanu Reeves in an uncredited role as 'Dog Boy'.

The plot is utterly crazy and involves toxic waste hence lots of monsters and bizarre mutants, each and every mutant character is well created and range from something simply like a guy farting allot to a guy that has a sock puppet for a head :) you see how weird this is.

All I can say is its a wild trip with tonnes of great makeup, wacky ideas and very little sense, almost like an old MTV music video.
