Summary: Wash Dry Spin Out
Review: A group of strangers meet at a laundry mat and work out their demons.

Gritty and Confrontational
The laundry mat customers do more than just wash their laundry, their personal dirty laundry comes to light as the movie becomes gritty and confrontational.

This movie is personal and uncomfortable at times as each customer tells their tale and you watch the effect it has on not only the other people in the laundry mat, but you too.

Adults Only-very adult themes.


Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Totally Real!
Review: As I watched this movie I realized that it is a scene in life that we have all experienced. We have either been a following member of this group or we are still embarrased by the fact that the "Crazy" was us!

This is very intense; the acting is supurb; action, lighting and camera work are excellent.

The story is real, everyday stuff ... sorry to say!

Summary: A twenty first century "PETRIFIED FOREST".
Review: Everyone has to wash clothes. That's a given, but on one hot night in the San Fernando Valley, the customers at a small laundrymat are a particularly eclectic lot. We have have aspiring screen writers, stressed out lesbians,a prostitute, a midget actor, a paraplegic, an ineffectual security guard and more, all of whom are afraid to stand up to three young hoodlums who terrorize and "mind rape" them all. It was interesting to see that no matter how hard the gang tried to "psychoanalize" their "victims", what they really did was to expose themselves, especialy their leader, as being extremely sociopathic losers.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Freak parade.
Review: Imagine you¡¦re depressed. You¡¦ve just been dumped by your girl friend. Forget that Ho. Go out with your buddies and raise some Hell. That¡¦s exactly what happens tonight at the local Laundry Mat. Carl, Gill, and Jeff are shameless punks that methodically torment a variety of freaks straight out of HollyWeird, CA. Where else would you find a midget, bazaar homosexuals, and a prostitute, among several other pathetic excuses for men washing their clothes?

As the story unfolds, curiously, none of the victims really possess any courage. Oddly enough, a cancer-stricken lesbian is more formidable than the so-called security guard! So naturally these inebriated thugs escalate their cruelty. For God¡¦s sake, Carl¡¦s got the chutzpah to pick on a paraplegic in a wheelchair! Even a young kid is targeted for a tumble¡K in the dryer, of course!

Not your Sunday choir boy movie. But if you enjoy gut-wrenching mind games this DVD is the ticket.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great New Cult Flick!
Review: These guys are wild! Their leader is "bad seed!" The action begins as the movie opens and continues thoughout.

An old guy is roughed up and robbed of his social security money. The drinking threesom then head for the laundromat to do laundry and terrorize everyone in the place. Everyone is a target ... except the hooker that can handle the crazies.

But the real eye opener is that the chief crazy, really has a sexual performance problem that makes him feel inferior.

Tyler Lindsay, who plays the leader of this group, is going to have a great career in films. He's a natural.

I hope Dan Patton who wrote, directed and produced the film will give us more of these "slices of life!"

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: EDGY
Review: This is the edgiest movie I have seen in a long time. I saw the movie a few days ago and I still can't get it out of my mind. It's provocative, homo-erotic, disturbing, challenging and very alternative. I don't know where the filmmaker got this idea but it's certainly unique.

A must see, twice.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Unwashable Sins
Review: Twisted entertainment? Absolutely. Void of any virtue? Oh yeah. A good old fashion sick-flick that smacks of the classic A Clockwork Orange, maniacal and cruel. Three boozed-up bad boys bent on airing more than dirty laundry at the local wash-n-dry. Carl and Gill cheer up their broken-hearted buddy, Jeff (just dumped by his girlfriend) at the expense of some sorry-ass Laundry mat patrons. At first, these hooligans engage in petty chitchat. But soon it turns pathological. Everybody¡¦s got an Achilles¡¦ heal. And Carl and company waste no time pinpointing easy prey. Tonight our cast of victims include a bawdy call girl, two lezbos, a gimp (David Schwimmer geek-clone), and even an ornery midget¡K not to mention a few other men of no moxie. Nobody leaves this Laundry Mat unscathed. No weakness goes unchecked. Nothing is sacred. Worse still, Carl¡¦s increasingly insatiable desire to inflict emotional distress. His repulsive humor tests the limits of chaos, and eventually his buddies.

All in all, a dude (not prude) DVD. But some butch chicks might say otherwise! Enjoy also the 30-minute trailer of between the scene interviews. But think twice before your next trip to the Laundry Mat. I hear Carl¡¦s out on parole!
