...movie, the criminal calls the brain "a parent's wet dream." But let's see. My relationship with my parents was better in high school because in college I decided to drop out for a year. They got a little pissed...
Several years later, when the three labs, the University of Arizona among them, produced their wet-blanket dates for the Turin shroud, a possibility flashed through Garza-Valdes' mind. What if the shroud too had a "bioplastic" varnish--and the labs had been fooled into decreeing an object younger than it actually was? In May 1993 Garza-Valdes traveled to Turin, microscope in hand, and was put in touch with Giovanni Riggi, the microanalyst who had parceled out the 1988 samples. Riggi let Garza-Valdes examine a tiny piece of shroud that he assured him came from the same batch...
...from Disney and Pixar, the tandem that made Toy Story), this creepy-crawly mini-epic features a cast of zillions and plenty of clever insect asides. But the kids will love the gross-out effects. One tiny creature, the Termite-ator, blows "snot" at the audience (you will get wet). A stink bug backs up to the screen and engulfs the crowd in his sulfurous stench (face it, fart jokes are funny).

The movie is just one big ode to cleavage, bikini carwashes, bisexuals, wet T-shirts and sweaty threesomes. Richards fares the best out of the four in a role that might be remembered for the rest of her career (whether this movie will start it or end it is a whole other question). Almost deserves a cult following, almost. But it's just...
...second half is too little musical creativity spread over too much time. "Cool Kiss" and "The Date" combine blinding flashes of white noise with lyrics ("Keep your hands up off of my lips / Capsize just like a tanker / Kill Kill Piss Piss") that are an amateur Freudian's wet dream. "Son" is a gently motoring ode to Weiland's new son, a la "Kooks" off Hunky Dory. "Jimmy Was a Stimulator" is a pleasant piece of glam/new wave with a nonsense lyric and a "Whole Lotta Love"-style freak-out middle...
