This "movie" is stunningly bad - it is strung together like someone founds clips of different movies and put them together for the hell of it. The acting is below bad community theatre - the guys playing tough gang members just shout their lines and use the f-word a lot because well, darn it, it's more effective. I am shocked to see that Holt got to make more films - I must say I am intrigued to see them just to check out if he got any better. At one point the film just switches all the action to a cave in the desert with no explanation - they had been in a room at a crack house and then - boom - they are up on cliffs in the desert - it's like Holt's mom got fed up with his little movie-making and kicked him out of her house so they all went to the desert to finish it. Jaw-dropping mess - some of it is SO bad that, yes, it is entertaining because you cant believe what you are seeing. Yikes!!
