VHS Movie Reviews of Johns [VHS]

Movie Review: Unsavory, Unpleasant and Unnecessary
Summary: 1 Stars

Do you know what would be more entertaining than watching this movie?

Going down to the streets of L.A. and sitting on a park bench to watch the crackhead hustlers standing around for hours on end. That's what this movie feels like. In fact, you might get a more interesting narrative than what you'd find in JOHNS. This movie wallows in squalor, despair, tedium, hopelessness...and, for some bizarre reason, religious symbolism. I can pretty much guarantee that anyone who might appreciate a little religious symbolism in their films will never watch--let alone enjoy--a movie like this.

In fact, I honestly can't imagine anyone enjoying this movie. Parking lot security cameras provide more entertainment.
