The movie starts out letting us know 2 guys are going to break into a home, then it goes into a flashback to one week earlier. These two men, Dexter and Royce (Scott Speedman, Wes Bentley) owe $1700 to a drug dealer (Raoul Bhaneja), but can't pay. Rather than getting their thumbs broken, they agree to sell drugs for him. Bently's girlfriend is also a $50 escort, but not a hooker. She has an idea. She knows a rich guy who is sick and out of town. His house will be empty for a week, and she knows the combination to his safe. They simply go in and take the money and pay off the drug dealer.Bam! Next scene, the girl (Taryn Manning) is on the floor dead. She OD by taking all the dope the guys were supposed to sell. At this point I am hooked on the movie. Kudos. Now I am wondering why her picture is on the cover? Is this another Steven Seagal in "Executive Decision?" They opt to bury the dead hooker in the basement of a building (drive-in movie) they were formally employed. While they are digging a hole in the dirt basement floor, a group of Satanists, including their former employer(Matt Frewer), is performing a human sacrifice upstairs. Time to hit the pause button, take another hit, and think about what is happening and where this is going.Okay after a few mispronounced "ave satanas" chants, some spilled blood and our dead hooker is alive and in a quick cat fight with a girl (Maggie Castle) in a plaid "school girl" skirt.Not being the brightest bulbs in the pack they opt to rob the deserted house only to find it is not only deserted, but they forgot to bring the paper with the combination on it. At one point our duo is held captive by a midget mall cop (Jordan Prentice who was Howard T. Duck). I think you get the idea. Cult movie.MF, F-bomb, adult themes, a little bit of drug use (just every other scene), no nudity, Canadian.

One of my favorite films is "Trainspotting" so of course I thought I'd like this film as well. There are some "Trainspotting" elements, like similarity between characters Spud and Royce, throughout the film and a couple of funny scenes but while I was watching it I kept waiting for it to end as soon as possible. Lead actress is talking funny, I don't recall her talking like that in "Sons of Anarchy" but maybe her role requires her to talk like that since she's an addict. Also, I recently watched "Felicity" and I have to say that Scott Speedman is almost the same in both roles as Ben and Dexter which in my opinion isn't good since those are two very different roles. Overall experience of this film wasn't good.

It's been a long time since I was in college and encountered stoners as hapless as the heroes of "Weirdsville." The movie takes about 50 minutes to find its groove, but once it does it's quite enjoyable. Beware: the film is darker than "Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle" or "Half-Baked." The lead characters are heroin addicts as well as hopheads. Their sordid lives and a preposterous plot -- fleeing from murderous Satan worshipers -- tempted me to turn off "Weirdsville" in the first half-hour. I'm glad I didn't. The story becomes more outrageous and engaging, and once you go with it, it's a memorable ride.

What a fabulous movie full of oddball characters and realistic dialog that is very funny. Two junkies come up with a scheme to pull a job in order to pay off a debt they can't pay at the moment. They get chased by Satan worshipers, dwarfs(or are they gnomes?), and of course the cops now and then. Every twist in this movie is a turn into something bizarre and unexpected and delicious.I love the character of the female Satan worshiper Treena she's able to kick some ass and nothing looks sexier on a woman than some spirit like that. Maggie Castle soaks up and RULES this minor role and is absolutely delicious in every frame. Maggie Castle - MEOW!! One of the great things that keeps this movie together is the dialog between old party buddies, it felt very real with the games they play on each other all the time and the continual verbal sparring adds a nice jump to the flick's pace.This movie reminded me of Pulp Fiction or Killing Zoe or Love is a .45, or Way of the Gun in the way it's an indie style road movie with weird characters all over the place.
