Where we shelve this film

Parodies & spoofs

Movie clichés through the spin cycle: genre parodies, slapstick and affectionate nonsense.

Utterly bananas

Wrestling squid, killer furniture and ideas that would derail any serious pitch meeting.

Camp & cult comedy

Exaggeration, bizarre ideas and a very particular sense of humour.

Our genre tags are curated classifications. These descriptions explain the shelf, not the film’s plot.

Screen on. Reality off.
