A 'strange but true' award winner., 7 September 1999
Author: rrauwl from Mountain View, California, USA

Without a doubt one of the most interesting movies that I've seen in a while that claimed to be mostly true. It claimed, in fact, that the parts that they made up are the ones that you would believe at the drop of a hat. It's the TRUTH that leaves your head shaking and your jaw wide open.

The movie is funny, strange, and a little chilling; with decent acting to boot. If you have some time to kill, catch this on re-run.
