Customer Reviews: Total numer of reviews: 1 Average rating: 4.0 "bizarre stuff" I've always wanted to see this film ever since I saw a still of the rubber-necked geisha sequence in an old film book. This is a very strange, quirky fantasy with some truly unusual and nightmarish imagery - particularly the aforementioned scene with the geisha. The story is a little confused at times but stick with it and you'll be rewarded with a viewing experience that's miles away from the stuff Hollywood pumps out. From another planet in fact.
