Okay, it's obvious that this disturbing exercise in totally annoying any potential viewers was not meant to be a movie or to be viewed by anyone in public, as it states. I too got this cheapy cheap as a double-feature with an additional non-movie. I think the store had only ordered in one or two copies even at bargain bin rates.
Yeah, the ending, what was that all about? Don't know if people should really even be allowed to rate this, but I'll give it a full one just for daring to mimic the concept of film, in and of itself.
Sort of like if you took a photograph of dirt and hung it up, and called it a painting.
Go watch "River's Edge" instead.

The reviewer who complained that this excellent, classic film has bad "computer effects" was being so sadly hilarious that I have stomach cramps from laughing and almost fell out of my chair. I seriously wish that people who reviewed movies would:
1. Watch the ENTIRE movie with intent from start to finish (otherwise, PLEASE do not bother with a review - as, what's the point?) Please also take notes and refer back to them instead of making stuff up off the top of your head as so many on here do.
2. PLEASE do your research prior to any review. For example, do not refer to effects as CGI when they are manually and painstakingly (with love) done by stop motion PHYSICAL camera work.
It would also be wonderful if such reviews were deleted because of their overall invalid nature, or at least in a cue for voting for possible deletion.
This movie, of course, uses MANUAL stop motion animation, and is one of my favorite movies of all time. Today's children who have had their heads crammed with cheap looking plastic CGI will often have a different view, I'm sure.
10/10 without question.
