Concept album from the Dutch post-modern pop duo Arling and Cameron. Each song has been constructed to fit a fictional bad genre flick. Inside the liner notes, a poster has been created for each movie, along with a paragraph of criticism giving background. This really adds to the humor of these tracks and I highly recommend checking them out if you play anything on this album. Songs cover a fairly wide range of styles, they tend to be somewhat pop flavored. Some of these songs are really, really bad (tracks 3, 5, 7--play 'em but don't say I didn't warn you), others are merely awful and kind of funny (track 4), and others are actually kind of good (tracks 2, 6, 10, 12, and 13). I really laughed a lot while reviewing this, so check it out.
