    This movie may have been bad and cheesy, but it was fun. The writing barely makes sense and the actors are terrible. Except for Bogart, he feckin kills it, and I love his Misfits makeup. A Devil-lock would fit well on his forehead next to the silly white strip of hair.

    There's a scene maybe halfway through when the two protagonists dig up a grave. They have no pushback or consequence for wrecking a cemetery, and when they leave they tell the undertaker "Clean it up for us will ya sonny boy ;)", and it's hilarious. It doesn't make a lick of sense and the actors ham it up, but it seems like the people making the movie didn't care and just wanted it to be fun. That's where the comedy elements, while they aren't really funny in the intended way, drive the movie forward despite the ridiculous plot. And the botched comedy in this does make it an enjoyable ride.
