There are B-movie pleasures to be had here. Worth a watch for curiosity value and those sumptuous "pushed" colours. Donlevy goes along for the ride and retains his dignity. The quirks on offer had me happily mesmerized for 80 minutes. Like it or loath it, it is a unique little film, and possibly, in its own way, a kitsch classic.
If John Waters and a young Rainer Werner fassbinder had a baby this might be it.
