Escape from Tomorrow

Ahh yes, the film shot guerilla style at Disneyland. I think this novelty will ultimately overshadow anything else about the film, it's a daring feat to be so subversive to the notoriously protective company.  And what they get away with (so far, Disney has wisely chosen to just ignore the small film) is pretty amazing.

The film itself is a real oddity though. At times a real lynchian nightmare and at others a very amateur home holiday movie. I loved the sci-fi-esque ideas present in the film, the themes are obvious and work fine and I even was surprised at the execution of much of it. There are segments where the tone really works and the absurdist humor is on full display.

But this is all coupled with some very primitive acting and dialogue and a pretty messy structure and pace. A very mixed bad and a cult oddity at best. Still, worth a look especially for Disney fanatics.
