This is one of those no-budget films where the overall meaning of the film is probably decipherable to the filmmaker and his close friends (all of whom are probably in this movie). There is some effective use of sound effects, and one or two shots approaching competence, especially with such an obviously frugal budget, but there's nothing that makes even remote sense or narrative cohesion in this film. This happens when your main focal point is someone mentally unhinged, but if this is a film attempting to showcase mental deterioration, it doesn't take itself seriously enough. The main character alternates between sullen, disturbed, and absolutely wacky, but he's consistently unlikable. There's no clue to his personality, motives or mental state until too far into the film to actually care. Not that there's anything thing to care about.
