Has anybody else seen this movie? It received limited release in the U.S. and hasn't made much of an impact on DVD, but it's a real lung-buster. The story's set five hundred years in the future, where rampant commercialization, pop-culture, and anti-intellectualism have literally turned the human race into...well, a bunch of total morons. Think Jonathan Swift meets BEAVIS & BUTTHEAD. (One of the creators from that show actually directed this one, FYI.)

This is destined to be as big a cult classic as "Office Space" (Mike Judge's other feature film). Maybe even bigger.
