Reviewer:left wing films - - November 30, 2005 Subject: something weird I love this one If you re a freak for weird memorabilia you should check it out I ll rate it 4 stars for the hypnotic imagery and the rebel amateur attitude
Reviewer:Christine Hennig - - October 30, 2005 Subject: Dancing with a Difference Experimental German film featuring people dancing to techno/noise music. Bizarre camera angles and tricks are experimented with, resulting in a moderately strange, trippy experience, though nothing as disturbing as The Buckskin Kid. The music really carries this one, having a bit more structure and interest than most techno/noise stuff. Ratings: Camp/Humor Value: **. Weirdness: ****. Historical Interest: ****. Overall Rating: ****.
