A solid cast makes this low-budget indie worth watching. In many recent big-budget films you must suspend your disbelief of plot points. Here we have a reasonable script with believable dialogue, and some gems in the main cast I would look for in the future. Add to that a kicka** soundtrack including songs (hysterically) written just for this script, and I enjoyed myself -- listen for a lyric about cotton replacing testosterone. And yes, Howard the Cat has no talent...
