Story: I actually missed the first 10 minutes of this suckfest so I don't know if I missed much of the plot or anything BUT I did miss some worldbuilding because the first 3 minutes is always spent on narrating for whatever crapsack world some shit like this is taking place in.

Had this on VHS as a double act with Monster City, which I have been unable to source on DVD. Better than I remembered I must say, with explicit sexual content and some amazing monster creations. A nice twist in the story coupled with original hand-drawn artwork makes for an entertaining 80 minutes of viewing - but not with the kids I must stress.
