Clearly an acquired taste, the film doesn't work at all because Hess (and his cast) don't really seem to have a handle on how to approach these characters (or stage or perform them for comic effect, if that's what the intent is). It just sort of sits there on screen as a document of these actors reading a script, which means the film quickly becomes stultifying - lacking say the sensory feel of a GUMMO, or the eccentric humanity of a Wes Anderson. A very strange, mildly unpleasant experience.
