Josh, a transvestite-in-denial, believes he's Tori Amos. Josh and his chronically bleeding Kung-Fu sidekick, Larry, inadvertently join a transvestite cult known as the "Strict Nine". At war with the Strict Nine are a violent skateboarder cult known only as the V.O.T.S. (or: Victims Of The System) who are obsessed with heavy-metal guitarist Chris Impellitteri. In the midst of this alt-cult war, Josh is kidnapped by the V.O.T.S., and in order to rescue him, Larry must call upon the unlikeliest team of superheroes on Earth: TEAM BRUTAL!

I'd looked at some of the director's other videos, and they were terrible. So when I saw he had put his "talent" toward a 132-page graphic novel (turned into this 2-hour film), with all the time and effort that involves, curiosity got the best of me. Well, I can now say that all that time and effort were wasted. This story, an anti- superhero satire in the vein of Mystery Men, is juvenile, amateurish, incompetent, and very boring. The voices are hit and miss, mostly miss. One bright spot was the decent artwork and coloring (hopefully the artists didn't donate their time), but it can't save this lame story. Do not watch unless you're a masochist.
