A low-budget wonder; full of great ideas and ambitions. Scored by a young Frank Zappa, oddly enough.

A whole lot of crazy. It's often difficult to discern what parts are satire and what parts are sincere, but at the very least it's a humorous take on organized religion. The film is undeniably rough. The acting, besides Carey, is awful. The editing is shabby. The dialogue needs work. But there are quite a few very good shots, and the Zappa score is very interesting. If you want to see Carey wear a snake, make out with an elderly woman, and stab a communion wafer, this is the place to go.

This movie gets a lot of points from me for originality, and some of the dialogue at the beginning is fantastic. Carey is weird and wonderful, as usual. But by the end I felt the film didn't quite fulfill the promise it shows closer to the opening. Well worth seeing for the oddity it is.
