An amusing bauble.
The movie's cheap, it's clever - it's even a little scary in places.
Baghead will disappoint gore hounds or anyone looking for an extreme horror experience -- this is more of a comedy-drama than anything else.
The filmmakers maintain a delicate balance that generates tension on multiple levels, including sexual. They giddily mix genres, but Baghead, part meta-cinematic comedy, part relationship drama and part horror movie, remains rooted in reality.
A very short and cheerfully scruffy comedy-thriller.
