Easily one of the best movies I've ever had the pleasure to watch.
From New Zealand, this deliciously wicked film never takes its foot off the pedal, adding layer upon layer of fun, blood and wit.
Morgana O'Reilly stars as Kylie, a young girl with a major chip on her shoulder and a rap sheet just as big. As if being sentenced to 8 months of house arrest under the supervision of her mother wasn't bad enough, it doesn't take long for Kylie to suspect that there may be other, other worldly reasons to want to get the hell out of dodge.
About the script I'll say no more, to give anything more away would be a disservice to the joy of watching this film develop.
Even at 1:48 the film never drags, in fact it's got so many twists and turns, zigs and zags, just when you think you've got it figured out, they add a new layer of awesome. But it all makes perfect sense in the end. Funny, crude, gross, tense, dramatic, smart, wicked, clever, I love my adjectives yes, but when a film can coherently combine all these elements on top of telling a honed story, it deserves all the love I can give it.
Watch it. WATCH IT!
