    I went in to this movie completely blind, and hoo boy it did not disappoint. The whole movie is uncomfortable “cringe” topics with amazing performances. It’s like a train wreck. You want to stop watching but you can’t.

    I don’t recommend watching with children or parents.

    Solondz never made a bad film and this is his best. Greatest black comedy I’ve ever seen. Disgusting and hilarious
