8/10
Destined to become a midnight movie cult classic
6 January 2018
Warning: Spoilers
If you're after a movie that's almost beyond description, then Dominic Brunt's Attack of the Adult Babies is for you, a film that's just begging to be seen on the big screen.

At first this satirical shocker seems like Benny Hill on acid with plenty of leggy nurses dressed in seductive uniforms, but the movie has a dark heart.

When two teenagers are forced to break into a manor to steal documents, they discover high-powered, middle-aged men taking refuge from the stresses of daily life by dressing in nappies and indulging their every perverse nursery whim!

As you can tell, not your usual movie with plenty of guts and faeces splattered across the walls, but if you scrape that aside you'll see a clever dissection of how the world treats its less fortunate. The cast which includes Sally Dexter, Joanne Mitchell (who also came up with this bizarre story) and Kurtis Lowe give it all they've got and add a sense of reality to this most bizarre piece. Oh, did I mention the claymation sequence near the end?!

This is destined to become a cult midnight movie hit and be applauded for being something totally different to what's on offer at the moment.
