It's one of the the most messed up, but amazing movies I have ever seen. You have to have a taste for its sort of dark humor to find it funny, but if you think you do, and you love Norman Reedus, then this is the movie for you.

I really liked this movie. The acting was terrific. It may not be for all, but I loved how dark the movie was.

Twisted, yet beautiful
Added 11/16/2006
I admit, I only originally watched this movie for the actors in it, but as I was watching it, I felt myself intrigued by the strange, yet sick, bond between a mother and her son. The movie itself can, at times, lack slightly in story line, but the overall effect it has will leave any person thinking. Debbie Harry and Norman Reedus both have memorable, and at times haunting, performances that make the movie what it is. I would say this is a must see movie.

Entertaining, offbeat, and riviting
Added 7/24/2006
It's great to see such a rich, quirky story hit the big screen. I wasn't expecting its charms and was surprised by Deborah Harry's excellent performance. Adrien Brody is wonderful, as usual. I recommend this movie to anybody looking for an offbeat way to spend an afternoon.

Twisted Oedipus Complex
Added 2/14/2005
I never saw the movie before I bought it, all I knew that Norman Reedus was in it and that I loved him in Boondock Saints and Blade II.
The people are wonderfully cast ~ not only Norman Reedus, but Deborah Harry as Harry's mother is a quirky Jewish mother and Adrien Brody is a wanna-be gangster to the point of ridiculousness. I loved Elina Lowensohn in the part as Iris.
It's a decidedly twisted combination of Jewish mob, Ohio, and a mama's boy...Very strange, but in this case it works ~ in an unusual way.
