CURSES!!

 

I thought maybe Dellamorte Dellamore (aka Cemetary Man) was finally going to be available on Region 1 DVD...

I can think of two things wrong with that title.

 

-- Nelson on The Simpsons

 

Seriously though, what the heck is the movie about anyway?

One of my favorites. It's too weird to not like it.

Seriously though, what the heck is the movie about anyway?

Exterminator Bill Lee finds himself following his wife into an addiction to the bug powder he uses. After accidentally killing her, he descends into a hallucinatory existence in which he imagines himself a secret agent answering to a series of bizarre creatures. He channels his energies into writing "reports" on his delusional mission, while trying to break his addiction.

 

IMDB summed it up better than I could. Seriously, the first time I saw it, I sat there staring at the screen thinking "What the fuck!?"
