Seen at the microcinefest film festival in 1997, this film gave us much to chortle about. An anything but ordinary asian-american family, with a drug dealer screw-up for one son, a nerdy one with a fetish for skinheads in leather for another, a whore cheerleader for a daughter, an ailing grandfather and psychotic parents. Hilarity ensues. A an extremely fun ride that blows away commercial garbage with its sarcastic wit, charm and schizophrenic craziness.

One of my most favorite movies of all time.

Provocative and perverse....you'll either love it, or love it.

Most don't know that there is a second version of this movie which has been edited for television that raises censorship to a new art form.

Enjoy.

This movie is painfully bad. The acting is awful, the script is a joke, it's a steaming pile of crap. It doesn't even have the charm of a Troma venture, where being bad is taken to the point of being amusing, this movie is just a waste of time and resources. It reminded me of a failed attempt at something along the lines of 'Class of Nuke em High', but trying too hard and falling flat.

If this was acted out by mainstream Hollywood actors, it would have been savaged for being the failed attempt at a turd it is. But because it's an indie flick it seems to get the big votes from a niche audience. If you like anything that normally scores highly on IMDb, this one is one to avoid.

When I first saw this movie, it took me a minute to decide whether it was the best movie I had ever seen, or the worst. Since then, I've watched Terminal USA probably more than I should have. Every single line of dialogue is genius! The climax at the end is so unbelievably terrific that it makes me pee my pants. I don't really have anything else to say, except that this movie rocks my socks. The End.
