Players like Hill, Long, and Zahn have natural comedic ability, but there's honestly not much they can do with such weak material.

After watching Strange Wilderness, you may want to soak your feet in a tub of live piranhas, just for a few laughs.

A few cute gags aside, this is an exercise in stupidity aimed at those who find 15 different names for a bong to be funny.

Really not very funny. Unless you're a moronic frat boy who's been smoking a lot of wacky backy, in which case it's probably hilarious.

Strange Wilderness is a never-ending bundle of self-consciously raunchy skits aimed at under-achieving slackers who are too high to notice how desperately pathetic it all is.

There's nothing in this lame, low budget stoner flick that even peeps above the parapet of the ordinary.

About as funny as watching a cute animal die a long slow death - and probably as painful.

'Strange Wilderness' isn't funny enough to produce anything more than a few slight chuckles. We mostly groan and squirm in our seats while watching it.

Maybe the screenwriters were chemically altered when they decided that this stoner comedy was funny.

Even though this raucous, low-low-lowbrow comedy hits theaters early in the year, I'm thinking the race for bottom-feeder of 2008 is, if not over, at least well under way.

The thing looks like it was shot over the course of six random (weed-filled) weekends, probably for fun at first, but then someone got the idea to release this glorified home movie into theaters. Bad idea.

Slinks its way in and out of theaters without leaving any trace of its passage besides a distinct tang in the air of flop sweat and sorrow.

No snob to low-brow ridiculousness when it's actually unexpected, I'll admit to being amused exactly once.

This farcical comedy is a Morlock of a movie--an ugly, subhuman dirt-dweller.
02/05/08
The cinematography and sound work are mediocre, but still far better than the material deserves: you can still see and hear what's happening on the screen.
02/05/08
At least Gaulke and Wolf didn't have to go far to kill their reputation: During the jungle piranha attack scene, a mallard floats by in the background.
02/05/08
This movie is designed for an audience that likes gross-out humour and endless silliness.
