How is the world wrong about this movie?

From Bryan: This film’s release was such a misfire. Put in multiplexes in the Spring of 1999, it came and went quickly. This should’ve been a slow roll out release through film fests and art houses. This isn’t a movie for everybody, but the ads made it seem like a regular horror flick. It is quite the opposite. A very unique genre-bending fun time to brighten up anyone’s Halloween movie party!
