The Mexican mama is being very firm with her dead infant. "Now, go away," she wails. You are dead. Don't sneak in at night to nurse from MY breast. That milk is only for the living. Well, I guess dead children, like any other kind, have got to learn.

Genius. Pure genius. There's simply nothing else I can say. I just watched it a second time and once again I was blown away by the sheer originality of this film. Directors like Guy Maddin give me hope for the future of cinema when everyone is just trying to create another franchise.

You can tell Maddin has complete control of his projects, creating the perfect evocation of his character's and his own consciousness. Brilliant film, criterion would be wise to pick this one up.

the film would not work were it not for the pitch perfect tone of the film. it is each character exuding the saddness of their souls, manifesting in their actions that makes the film; and all i could do was laugh. brilliant film

probably the best comedy i've seen in a long time, this is strange, absurd, original, hilarious, interesting, intoxicating, and on top of that it's delightfully delicious !

This movie is a riot: A crazed, sexy as always, Isabella Rossellini, that dude from kids in the hall, and glass prosthetic legs filled with beer...what's not to like?!!!
