Enormously entertaining film just keeps doing things unexpectedly, like Black deliberately set out to write a film that behaves unlike any other. I've mentioned before the scene under the bed with the dying girl, and the hanging from a corpse, but these are just two examples. For example, the dog that eats his finger, he then pats it. And the Russian roulette scene which is just so funny. And the spider / bra scene - I mean have you ever seen that before?
Loved the asides, such as right at the end:
'And if you're wondering who the Best Boy is, he's someone's nephew. Sorry to all the folks out there in the Mid West for swearing so much..'
It also keeps getting better. Really nicely lit (Michael Barrett). Lots of red in the decor throughout.

Loved that the film's original title was to be 'You'll Never Die in This Town Again'!
