Ok, ok. I'm all for experimentalism. I'm open to new experiences and all, but I'm not sure I'm keen on "illustrated film," or "moving books" or what have you. Basically, no matter what they call it, what we have here is a cartoon that really isn't moving. It is a movie of still lifes.
yeah.
For the most part folks, if you ain't got the dough for the show, come back when you don't lack, jack! So that's five to fifty negative points there. But then this little film ha the voice of Lance Hendrickson which is five to fifty points to the good, so I continued watching.
What we have here is a very interesting story that needs a budget. It's set in a bleak future (all the happy futures are obviously being used elsewhere) where life is cheap and so is the animation. Lance is some mystical monky dude who gets off in all senses of the word via sexual magic. So of course he knows some killer whores, literally killer whores.
So then we have our hero, who is "pure," but is also a teenage jerk. But he has a heart of gold and wants to save his sister who's in a coma and needs a heart. So he takes up on Lance's deal to help them find a maguffin square of infinite power and keep away from monsters and monsterous people.
This is pretty weird stuff along the lines of Heavy Metal in its hey day. You can't say the author isn't inventive that's for sure. Also, you can tell that lance is having a ball as crazy sex monk. So if you can dig that you are basically going to be watching someone flip a comic book give it a try.
