This film gives us a pudgy and plain mound of sexual awkwardness in the body a 12-year-old, who is convinced that is he is the cosmic double of a ponytailed, space-hopping TV femme fatale.

Grandly Guignol
The film has cheesy dialogue and plot holes a mile wide, but also contains tight pacing, plenty of expertly timed scares, and the generous helping of unapologetic gore that's been missing from the glut of "horror" movies currently plaguing American screens.

Dance Lessonsnew
This snooty-dancer-meets-street-dancer musical romance is so painfully intent on teaching its characters life lessons every few minutes that it forgets to be trashy.
