Think 'David Lynch & John Waters collaborates with Adult Swim'. There are some great awkward laughs, and moments that have you thinking 'wow, this is really ambitious'.

Hilarious! Loved it! Cross between Stepford Wives and Edward Scissorhands. Social commentary I guess many don't want to see because it reminds them of themselves; outwardly boring as **** conformists and inwardly exploding.
