Haven't really heard a lot of talk about this one here. Does anyone else really appreciate this musical? Yah? Nah?

one of my favorites.
the DVD starring Ana Gasteyer, Christian Campbell, Alan Cumming, Kristen Bell, etc is a wonderful film adaptation of the stage show! Its so fun!

I've never seen the stage show, but I think the movie is a lot of fun. It's the silly sort of off-Broadway musical that we don't see very much anymore. Some good laughs and catchy songs.

Never seen the stage production, but the movie musical is a lot of fun. The songs are dangerously catchy, especially since you can't exactly go around singing them when they're stuck in your head.

If I had a nickel for every time I had to stop myself from belting "when Jack gets stoned and RAAAAPES MEEEEEEE" on the street...

The exploitation movie it is based on is an unintentional laugh riot and a cult classic bad movie.

That's when I first realized how fierce a singer Anna Gasteyer is.
The stage show is fun, but I actually enjoy the movie more. I think the changes they made for the Showtime version are all for the better.
And I agree the score is ridiculously catchy.
....but the world goes 'round

I'll have to check this out.
I saw Ana Gasteyer in Wicked. She was crazy good. I had no idea until then she could sing.

Here she is performing the song live at the CD launch a few years ago https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WYFkBbMP0qI

She was on the recent City Center revival of A New Brain. She also previously appeared in Wicked.

Gasteyer is a fantastic singer and a fantastic musical theatre actress in general. I'd love for her to do more stage work.
She was easily the highlight of A New Brain last summer.
