Howlingly Bad

Rating: Null/10 (10 June 2004)

What a stinker. Every cliché you can think of is dropped in with a thud. You know it's bad when everyone in the theater laughs out loud at the love scene.... Mark my words, in a year or two this will be playing at midnight (alternating with "Rocky Horror") and groupies will come clutching bibles, wearing cane-bottomed chairs and dodging wolves.
I know this is reputed to be a film with a political message, but for the life of me I can't see that any agenda is well served by this mess. (SPOILER ALERT) Anyone who thinks the US would evacuate to Mexico and not lead the way with tanks has not been paying attention.
While I hate myself for paying $8 to suffer through this film, I know that my self-loathing can be nothing next to the shame and humiliation that the actors must feel. Let's hope they got really big paychecks in order to pay for lots of therapy.
