I totally have to admit, I'm less than sure what's actually going on in
Atmo HorroX, it's basically about monsters attacking humans, in
sometimes very weird, even awkward ways. One main plot concerns a man who
has been turned into a particularly odd monster that wears penis-shaped
balloons over his crotch and is somehow given the objects to kill his
victims with by his shaman. Another plotline is about a very square guy
who delivers quite a bit of ingenuity when it comes to killing monsters.
But that's only a small part of the movie ... Actually no, Atmo
HorroX has no actual main storyline, no actual lead or
antagonist, and it's structured oddly to say the least - but for those who
can see above this and who can take the monster genre with more than a
grain of salt, it's also lots of fun, a very surreal and satirical play
with genre conventions, twisting and turning them to absurd and/or
hilarious results. Now sure, the whole film might not exactly be for
rigid mainstream audiences coming in with very fixed expectations - but
for those with an open mind, it's total fun! ... and if this
has gotten you at all interested, you can stream the movie here:
