Welcome to the wonderful world of street bums. This film is like a homeless opera. The noxious drink is only part of the story. Here we see in comical fashion the world of the homeless. I had seen this before and it’s much worse now the second time around.

There are many low life characters here, each with their own agenda. There’s a liquor store owner who has just found a crate in the basement of weird booze called "Tenafly Viper". He sells it for a buck and it flies like hot cakes. Viper instantly melts you from the inside once you drink it. We have several homeless men around town melting into ooze and the police are baffled. Then there is the Salvage Yard where many of the homeless live and this one buff, tall dude is king. His name is Bronson, he’s ex military and carries a knife made from a human femur bone. One tough S.O.B. The owner of the yard is a horny lard ass who wants to screw his ugly short haired Asian secretary. She brings sandwiches to the runaway kids and has the hots for one of them. She shows him her tits on one occasion and he likes that.

There’s this one scene which I guess was supposed to be funny but in reality was just stupid and annoying. This black bum goes on a shoplifting spree inside a supermarket sticking anything down his pants including raw chicken. This one homeless that looks like a beat poet finds a drunken lady vomiting outside a restaurant and he takes her to the salvage yard for sex. Can you imagine what this dudes unwashed privates must have smelled like. It could have possibly sobered up the poor woman and made her come to her senses. Anyway she ends up dead the next morning floating facedown in the river. In another scene which made the movie come alive for a bit Bronson rips a guys penis off and all the guys in the yard play catch with it, keeping it away from the owner who wants it back understandably. Later two more hobos drink Viper and melt into some blue ooze. A fat guy drinks it and explodes, with body parts and guts flying everywhere.

In the last act we are back at the salvage yard where a pissed off Bronson is after one of the runaway kids. (Yeah the one that has the thing for the Asian secretary.) We don’t know why but he just starts chasing him around the whole place. After a much too long and much too boring chase Bronson is beheaded by a loose hydrogen tank that flies at him at full force. I forget who set this up but by now I’m just glad the movie’s over.

I might have said this before on other reviews but it rings true here: You will need to take a shower after watching this film! All the characters are dirty bums, I can smell them from here. We are thrown head first into their toilet trash world and walk around with our noses pinched. The movie is not bad, it’s just disgusting, especially Bronson’s girlfriend... you’ll know when you see her, or should I say smell her. No explanation is given to why the Viper turns homeless into ooze and that’s ok. The effects are good but not great. But one final warning my friends. You may have all heard of the dick tossing scene and the cool Viper drink but you’re in for so much more. You get the whole homeless experience. This is some nitty gritty shit we are talking about!
