This one's definitely one to see, just to say you've seen it. That's not to say you won't get something out of it, but it's weird… it's tremendously weird! It starts off predictably enough, with a revenge flick set-up, but soon goes off on superbly bizarre tangents involving flying heads, automaton Buddhas and tons of maggots and oodles of vomit. It seems that anything to do with magic also involves maggots and vomit. A word of warning to people - like me - who like to try to psycho-analyse weird films, books etc.; don't try with this. Your head will hurt. The best thing to do when watching this, is just to let it wash over you.
