The best thing in this wild assemblage of collage and cartoon and fairy tale is that the girls, when they're eaten, scream with glee as their cut-out body parts spin around the frame. It's cannibalism as the ultimate kiddie ride.

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
There's never a dull moment, though I certainly felt dulled by the time it was over.
Movies as original as this one don't come along very often, so grab it while you can.
For connoisseurs of the bizarre, House's revival is long overdue.
Gigglers and cultists, pony up.
