Trivia:

The film was originally shown to the BBFC in an unfinished version. They recommended that a sequence featuring a man sucking excrement from the anus of a live rabbit would need to be removed before the film could be classified '18'. This cut was requested on the grounds of an infringement of the Cinematograph Films (Animals) Act 1937. When the finished version was submitted, this sequence had been deleted and the film was passed '18' without further cuts.

Valley boys show Welsh draggin' comedy cinema further down into the gutter, hilariously.

Another movie that's ridiculously easy to review, this is the big-screen outing for the Dirty Sanchez boys - the Welsh equivalent of Jackass to use the oft-mentioned shorthand description.

Despite a rather annoying and daft wraparound tale involving the boys ending up in Hell with only one way out (involving all 7 of the 7 deadly sins), these lads manage to impress audiences almost as much as their U.S. counterparts.

Once again, in a similar way to the Jackass movie, we get bombarded with the gross and the grossly funny while also getting to know the individuals involved and to quickly learn the group dynamic that makes each skit/personal moment of revenge all the more amusing and involving.

It's safe to say that the easily offended should stay well away from this one. I'm not the hardest person to make queasy and even I was worried about some activity in my digestive system while I watched some of the more extreme moments featured in this movie. As I said about the Jackass movie, it's not big or clever but it is damned funny and all done with an infectious, childish glee that makes it hard to resist IF you can go along with the boys and their antics.
