Loose Ends

About This Movie

So, 'Loose Ends' is this quirky 1986 comedy that brings together the world of zealous cults and the chaotic realm of independent filmmaking. The pacing can feel a bit erratic at times, but it really captures that offbeat vibe of the era. You've got Bishop Wally, who's hilariously out of his depth, trying to dodge the IRS while dealing with his slippery tax advisor, Lodz. The performances lean into that campy style, and there’s this constant tug-of-war between the religious fervor and the absurdity of filmmaking. It's got some practical effects that, while not groundbreaking, add to that raw charm. Definitely distinctive with its satirical take on both cult culture and the film industry.
