Eu não me surpreenderia caso descobrisse que este filme foi realizado por um grupo de adolescentes bêbados durante um churrasco da escola.

As deadly to brain cells as huffing paint thinner, but more delightful!

The year may be young but it's going to take something extraordinary to top this as the worst film of 2002.
