This is the true grindhouse experience (for want of a better phrase) for modern living, endlessly watching any zero budget cack thrown up on the screen in the comfort of your own home. I'll take this any day over all the new releases of old films people endlessly talk about on here. Hell, I'll go as far to say this is film viewing as exploration into new frontiers of the bland, cinema as endurance test. Any fool can watch excessive gore and violence or iffy moral content. It takes a special person to wade throw the extremely shallow waters of the direct to DVD world.
