Not a bad no-budget feature that picks up in the last act; a new spin on the '80's horror genre. Steve Merrill plays the Pizza Man, who is having one of the worst days ever: his co-workers dog on him, the girl he likes thinks he's too old, his car is moments away from breaking down - only dogs and ducks seem to be able to see Pizza Man's true nature. Intercut with the Pizza Man's story is that of entrepreneur Simon Tyler, who has bought an warehouse with the intent to turn it into a hip nightclub. Holding an all-night "energy party" with his new employees - a dj, an aclu lobbyist/stripper, a goth artistic designer, a professional bouncer/security engineer, and his personal assistant - the group manages to invoke the Romanian gypsy curse of Thed Ude.

All-in-all, this is your standard campy horror movie with a few twists (noteably: a tango sequence).

The horror genre features stories that aim to elicit fear, suspense, and a sense of dread in its audience. Horror stories often explore themes related to the unknown, the supernatural, and the macabre, and they frequently evoke strong emotional reactions such as anxiety, terror, and unease.

When the worlds of high speed pizza delivery and accidentally invoked gypsy elemental beings collide, cheese is extra.
