Goofy cult classic about a square, morally righteous couple living in L.A. who fall on hard financial times and decide to solve their money problems by luring perverts to their apartment, killing them, and stealing their money. Who Raoul is and how exactly he gets eaten you will have to find out for yourself, because I don't have the energy to explain it here.
I found it pretty hilarious that this couple who sleep in separate beds and cuddle with stuffed animals have absolutely no compunction about offing any number of people. The film is delivered dead pan all the way through, and I suppose you might have to be in a certain mood in order to enjoy it. It's one of those movies that's best watched on a total whim late at night when the last thing you want is something you have to think too much about. It could have been funnier if the people who made it had really decided to go for it. As it is the execution is a bit too tame for the outrageous premise it sets up. But I can see why this turned into a cult hit.
Grade: A-
