Designed pretty much to offend and confuse you. Crispin Glover directs a movie with an all down syndrome cast. He plays some kind of dictator who watches them do depraved things. It reminds me that the line between genius and insanity is very thin. It's pretty obvious that Glover is on the side of insanity. It's all well and good to make movies like this but they should have a point besides just showing offensive images and trying to provoke a reaction.

This movie is practically Crispin Glover screaming "Don't you all think I'm very weird and a genius?".

Soundtrack: Some Niggers Never Die (They Just Smell That Way).

That pretty much sums up this horrible excuse for an experimental film.
