Commentary:
Based on the comic book series I created in 2003.

This movie will probably be much more enjoyable for you if you're on drugs. I've never tried it, but I can only imagine. I like to think this is the worst movie ever made. That was one of the main purposes of making it. The more people hate this movie the more I enjoy it.

Keep in mind that at the time this was made Flash was much more limited. I encountered numerous bugs due to the crayon textures. It took me about a year to complete. In the beginning I wanted to make it look as crappy as I could but the further it goes the more it looks like 'South Park'.

I wrote this movie my senior year of high school in 2003. I remember writing it when I was supposed to be doing my big English paper. I never did the paper and failed the class but it didn't matter because I didn't need the credits. If you look at the fire in the slumber party scene you can see the face of my high school English teacher.

I learned a lot making this piece of crap movie. I don't regret doing it. It has served its purpose and the writing is true to the comics. Would I do this movie completely differently now days? YES. But I think everyone feels that way about their old work.

I did a full movie commentary on the DVD. It goes over pretty much everything I have to say about it.
