4.0 out of 5 starsA New Twist for Oliver Twist
By T. Halkin on November 8, 2001
Format: VHS Tape
What really makes this low-budget, indi film are the magnificent performances of this highly talented ensemble cast. Seth Michael Donsky, who wrote and directed it, had an excellent idea: set Charles Dickens' classic "Oliver Twist" in contemporary New York City. God knows, not much has changed since Dickens wrote his socially critical study of a young orphan boy, caught in the grips of an unfair society. With the low-budget that Donsky obviously had, he makes a valiant attempt at creating a visually dark and atmospheric montage of the underbelly of modern urban society. He doesn't always succeed, and the film is at points muddled, but the ultimate effect is strong.
The Twist: "Oliver", or as he's called here, Lee, has run away from an abusive foster home and fines comfort and shelter from the elderly street performer, Can Man (beautifully played by Ray Aranha). Can Man teaches him about dreams being the basis of hope, and how you must keep your dreams safe. After Can Man is brutally murdered by a gang of thugs, Lee is comforted and brought "home" by Fine Art - a cute take off on "The Artful Dodger". Fine Art (Jean Loup Wolfman gives an eerie performance) is a young call-boy living in Andre's all-male brothel. The elderly Andre (no less than William Hickey) is the story's Euro-trash version of "Fagan", who is reliant on Eddie (akin to "Bill Sykes") for the house's supply of drugs. Eddie (a scary performance by Anthony Crivello) has a fairly large revere in the city under his control. He pimps his boys and runs his deals, and no one gets in his way and lives to tell about it. Angel (a beautiful and sensitive performance by David Norona) is Eddie's "Nancy".Read more ›

1.0 out of 5 starsNot sure if it is that twisted or not.

Boring. Could have done better. I had to hit fast-forward button on my remote control to some pieces of its story that I need to know before "wrapping up" this movie (finish at its ending credits).

I wanted to like this movie so much more than I actually did. Unfortately it was pretty much a mess from beginning to end.

A great performance from Anthony Crivello though.

1.0 out of 5 starsCheck out the short subject
By Martha Moffett on April 15, 2009
Format: DVD Verified Purchase
This was a terrible movie, but the short, "Loopy," is a gem. It's the work of two film students and I believe served as their thesis. A retelling of "Little Red Riding Hood," it serves up chills, good acting, and the best wolf costume in existence.

5.0 out of 5 starsThe best bad movie ever!!!
By A Customer on May 29, 1999
Format: VHS Tape
I have to admit I had some reservations when I first viewed this masterpiece but thankfully I was not disappointed. William Hickey was a godsend to this movie and the extra/grip - Shandy Bollman was Fab-u-lous! The other actors, while extremely talented, were munching the scenery like cows on grass. Get ready Mystery Science Theater - You MUST watch this movie!!! It has everything New Yorkers love - drag queens, drugs, homeless people and hookers. Get Twisted!!!

5.0 out of 5 starsWarning!
By PJR on September 10, 2011
Format: DVD
So experimental that it is almost unwatchable. Don't watch it for entertainment, and it is pretty repulsive. But with those qualifications I give it five stars because it is so very brave in an effort to be creative and there are some brilliant ideas crammed into it and it can even be quite touching.

If you are interested in independent experimental films, take note of this one. I would love to see what some of this talent might do in the future if given the chance and with a few years to reflect on this work. I see a lot of artistic potential here in terms of cinematography, script, direction, acting, etc. At times I thought, Ken Russell meets John Waters.

It is worth mentioning that I think some reviewers are wrong in calling this a gay themed film. True there are mostly gay characters in it. But so what? It is more about down-and-outers and the seamy side of life where money and hard breaks rule and yet where compassion sometimes has a chance. This is not to say that the story is all that important, it is mostly the way the film is "done." I think the "low-life" gay stuff just contributes to the overall exotic and gritty atmosphere.

The short "Loopy" was a cute experimental short of the sort that would fit in well with other shorts at a film festival.

All in all, this film will only be appreciated by certain types of viewers -- perhaps those who like to check out film festivals for new talent.

it's real, although not real enough; it only scratches the surface. it's been liberally sugar coated, but still worth watching.
