THE HAUNTED WORLD
OF EL SUPERBEASTO

|
In order to understand about fifty percent of what's on screen you'd have to had seen all of Zombie's work from "House of a Thousand Corpses," in a twist this only makes the movie feel all the more polarizing. In spite of the all star cast, "Superbeasto" feels like a cheap attempt to begin a series and it eventually feels like Zombie is jerking us around for a sequel or series as he leaves plotlines open and never fully develops his characters beyond Superbeasto and Suzie X (played by his wife, no surprise). The rest of the cast is left in the background barely focused on and extrapolated in to unique individuals instead of props used to further Superbeasto's mission to... uh... you know I never understood what the fuck "The Haunted World of El Superbeasto" was all about. I just know there's plenty of swearing, a hell of a lot of tit shots, and a premise that's almost non-existent. Did I mention the musical numbers? Dear god. Tom Papa and Zombie really write themselves in to a shit hole as the two seem to be fighting for the direction of the movie. Zombie wants to create his own world that links to his past films, while Papa almost looks to want to strive for originality and a world that's set apart from Zombie's other works. Worse more, the two even resort to spoofing the movie while telling the plot progresses which just all out screams desperation. At one point a character ventures the question "Can this get anymore repulsive?" Watch the movie and you'll find enough room to nod "Yes."
