★★★★★ · It's always cheaper at the junkyard. · Psy-Fi · 2012-05-07

Rue McClanahan in her finest role as 'Poochie' a low-rent junkyard whore. A seedy plot and lots of hilarious stream of consciousness dialog combined with cartoonish acting. Low budget laughs all the way!

I have a headache from the first 15 minutes and Rue McClanahan from Golden girls is in it as the sleazy bimbo sleeping with the turd of an owner..the turd thinks he's a gawd and the cops couldn't find their asses with both hands with directions printed in the backs of them after someone poked them in the ass with a sharp stick. I would have walked out the first minute after the moron turd dared me to do pushups even if I had to walk to the next 9 towns. Did I mention this is a turd of a flick?
