Electra Luxx

I don't like leaving a theater during a film, until it is absolutely over and the MPAA rating is on the screen.  So missing the last thirty minutes of this film due to a projector failure has been gnawing at me, despite my earlier poor review of the first half.  With the SXSW music festival in full swing, I had the opportunity to get out of downtown and close out the film fest with another screening, this time as the Alamo South Lamar.

All in all, the stupid one-liners are funny ("I'm pregnant."  "Is it yours?"), but the overall plot is too disjointed and fumbly, just poorly executed.  It feels rough and unedited, and never reaches the level of cult awesome that it seeks.
