Based on a novella by esteemed author Harlan Ellison, this is a low-budget sci-fi comedy-drama about a horny teenager (Don Johnson) and his telepathic dog (voiced by Tim McIntire) surviving in a post-apocalyptic wilderness, who are lured into a weird underground world. It’s a film fuelled by weirdness, left-field ideas, and a controversial tragicomic ending.
It’s a “not for everyone” kind of film that, I must confess, I found hard to properly engage with thanks to watching the poor quality, overly dark, windowboxed copy that used to be hosted on Amazon Prime Instant Video.
One to try again someday, maybe.

I couldn’t watch Alien v Predators because it was too damn dark!

The second one, AVP Requiem, is absolutely terrible for that (also absolutely terrible generally) — you can’t see a thing in the big monster-on-monster climax.
