How do you review a movie about a guy and girl with murderous mutant genitalia? In the hands of David Cronenberg, this could have been a truly disturbing, fascinating horror film. But in lieu of Cronenberg, we have Frank Henenlotter of Basket Case fame. Henenlotter, as always, takes the comedic route, which forces you to view the effort as one of those ‘so bad it’s good’ sort of flicks. It’s a shame, because there’s some provocative stuff about insatiable female desire and male sexual powerlessness lurking in the subtext. Once the movie focuses on a detached penis that embarks on a murderous rampage, that potential flies out the window.
