Whilst I did enjoy this, I'm glad I decided to rent it than blind-buy; mainly because I can't see myself wanting to revisit it for a while...and by then, the DVD/BD will be dirt cheap
Agreed. I read a Kim Newman rave review, but like you decided to rent rather than blind buy. And like you, glad I did. Perfectly watchable, but can't see me wanting to watch it again. I found the dream sequences far too MTV stylised, and took me out of the film every time they appeared. But fine as a twisted, blackly comic character study . . .
