A hero luchidor called El Superbistro (or something?) has his eye on a stripper but before he is able to declare his amorous intentions to her, she is kidnapped by a gorilla with a screw loose, who's working on behalf of Dr Satan, Bistro's arch nemesis. So from there El Superbistro has to team up with his sister Lara Croft and rescue the girl and save the world... Easy peasy!
I'm no stranger to Rob Zombie and have really enjoyed some of his work (Devil's Rejects and that Bigfoot comic, in particular) and I've even been known, on occasion, to listen to his music whilst sticking together my Airfix Panzer battalion, with a cup of tea but after watching this, I'm still none the wiser as to whether I liked it or not!
Yeah its suitably offensive, packed full of sex, violence and bad language. The jokes are plenty and story is certainly nonstop but somewhere its lacking. I'd like to put its shortcomings down to a few of the irritating characters but unfortunately I suspect the films failings are maybe more deep rooted than that and I suspect that this was/is one of those films that worked better and was a lot funnier on paper?! That said, there's a few that seem to really rate this on here, so maybe, despite getting most of the in jokes, silly scripting and sight gags, I missed the element that saved me from finding it all a bit noisy and dull!
The animation serves its purpose and fans of The Tick and Ren and Stimpy should enjoy it at least... Ultimately though, this isn't as good as it should've been.. Meaning that in an alternate universe, out there somewhere, Rob Zombie made a feature length animation of Meng and Ecker instead! Which I'll bet is a hundred times better than this!!
I'd of liked a' making of' on the dvd but didn't get one.... Read more ›

Absolute, stunning visually with vibrant cartoon tones leering across the screen but the story dialogue and the scenes would appeal to the immature 13 year old in me back when I was that age. Fast forward a few years and this is flat screen, daddio
Cartoon sex, well OK if that's your bag. jokes about Hitler and Nazis, all OK but life has moved on, apart from those few stuck in glorifying WW2, the rest of us are more affected by American foreign policy than Adolf.
This aims to be risque, flouting all the rules which it would have done in 1969 but in the 21st century its just old tired cliches strung together to create a narrative. Like much else modern fayre from the USA it tacks into a hormonal rebellion to extract those extra dollars from the newly made affluent. So if you've spent a day flipping burgers for the overweight and fancy something that will take your mind off reality then drop this into the slot and become immersed in something even more innane.
It is full of bright dazzling colours of somewhere over the rainbow but when you wake up you will realise the supo beast is just a pair of "pants."

Format:DVD|Amazon Vine™ Review
(What's this?)
It didn't have to be. It had the elements to be an entertaining parody of the luchador (masked wrestler) movie and mexican horror but director Rob zombie insists on throwing in everything including the ktichen sink, the toilet system, and the sewers. It's drowned in noise, grotesqueries, cartoon violence (well, it is a cartoon), sex, nudity, (none of these bad things in themselves), humour (crude, obvious, unfunny), songs, music, bad taste (but not interesting bad taste), infinitely extendable boobs and bottoms, horror, parody, satire, all of it hurled in your face non-stop in a way that manages to be mentally draining, wearisome, and boring at the same time.
After only 74 minutes I was so glad to eject this monstrous turkey and just physically could not bring myself to watch the extras (deleted scenes, extended -dear lord, no!- scenes, full length animatic, and trailer) because I had really seen enough. Brain-damaged teenagers on drugs might like this but I can't imagine it appealing to anyone else and I love movies with bad taste -the legendary 'Street Trash' for example- but this is just awful beyond belief. I'd sooner watch 'Plan 9 From Outer Space' than see this again.
Avoid at all at costs.

(What's this?)
I did not realise that Rob Zombie had a hand in comics or cartoons. I know him only from that fabulous film "Devil's Rejects". This cartoon is a pornographic adventure involving monsters and zombies and pretty girls. There are jokes galore, many of which may have been lost on me as I am neither American or young enough to aooreciate them. All in all it does not appeal to my taste but it is very well done and the music is very good.

Format:DVD|Amazon Vine™ Review
(What's this?)
Okay, so what did I just watch? I feel like I've been run-over by a mobility scooter... kinda bad but in a funny way.
I think that sums this up for me. It's truly awful but in a way so that it actually makes it interesting & watchable.
The animation borders on Ren & Stimpy with a touch of cheap anime thrown-in. A lot more detail has been put into the naked babes than necessary but I'm not objecting to that
A few of the characters are hilarious; the Nazi Zombie for one and my favourite is Velvet Von Black voiced by potty-mouthed Rosario Dawson.
Borderline madness/genius, worth a view.

Ohmigod! It's so dirty, subversive, violent, degrading, gross, un-PC and grotesque. It should have carried a health warning label. I liked it a lot.

Voice overs are terrific. Read more
