    This movie is so insane that everyone should see it with a dead body. Vincent Gallo plays an old woman (i guess) who makes child porn and then cooks the kids up and eats them in tamales. The main chick breaks out of jail and hooks up with a lesbo prison mate, they kill lots of ...( read more)people and finally end up with Gallo "Sister Gomez", where they have flashbacks of being her child slave and they cook her in an oven, at which time he turns literally into a witch and burns up. Wow.

    Like flying with spray paint, Confessions of a Trickbaby is a perfect example of OTT surreal riot-girl cinema much in the vein of trash masters John Waters and Russ Meyer.
    Take a fairytale theme, add in two convicted criminals, a transvestite nun, necrophilia, pedophilia, les...( read more)bianism, strikingly ferocious violence, projectile puking, prostitution and drug abuse, round it off by acidic black comedy and a punky soundtrack, and you will get one hell of a fucked up film. This shocking exploitation based movie depicts various acts of depravity in explicit detail wallowing in a festering sinkhole of foul cinematic scuzziness with a certain lip-smacking fiendish glee. You can almost hear Matthew Bright chuckling from behind the camera, holding his breath and whispering, 'I can't believe I'm getting away with it'.
    Powered along by defiant and fearless, anything-goes, dynamic and uninhibited performances by Lyonne, Celedonio and Gallo, Confessions of a Trickbaby is a film that promises to be like nothing out of the Hollywood machine.
    It could delight you, amaze you, offend you or disgust you but I will promise you one thing; you'll never see Hansel and Gretel like this EVER.

    This is such an odd film its worth watching just for the Vincent Gallo as a tranny bit.

    This movie had potential, but fell through the cracks. To bad.

    So, so bad. Why won't anyone give Natasha Lyonne a decent part..I mean aside from the drug thing..?
