Review

pretty funny 80s flick about a mostly uptight couple that go on a killing spree for money. it sort of reminded me of the gods must be crazy set in los angeles. it’s a funny film that addresses, in a not very serious way, lots of the issues of the time – rampant sexuality and drug-use being a couple of those. mostly though it’s a throwback to the 60s/70s sexploitation films. it’s definitely not for everyone because some of the humor is dark and some of it just won’t sit well with some people. it seems like a more likely film to become a cult-classic than repo man, but what do i know? .
