Nightmarish fantasy with some Heath Robinson like comedy moments. It's quite a difficult film to evaluate on a first viewing as the initially baffling elements slowly fall into place. For example, there's a brain in a cabinet, conjoined twins, a dwarf woman, a borg like cult, a guy with mind control fleas and multiple clones of one person. This list of characters is by no means exhaustive - and the weirdness doesn't stop there.
Overall, by the end I was satisfied I had worked out what was going on and enjoyed the journey in getting there thanks to some memorable characters, steampunk look and fairy tale like plot.
I can imagine revisiting this at least once.
Verdict: Weird Bad Santa.
