camp disasterEuro-trash fever dreamso bad it's almost art

Overview

ComedyFantasyAdventureAction

Nils Lovelorn, blessed with a present ego and a "second self" in the form of a well-rounded super blonde called Bebe, is sent back in time by time machine. There he is to blow out the lights of a pharaoh who, 3000 years later, threatens the world with destruction as a demon. Unfortunately, his feminine second half occasionally gains the upper hand and, to make matters worse, falls in love with the blood-sucking, evil pharaoh.

Standout Aspects

Costume

Whatever Bébé is wearing defies physics and good taste simultaneously.

Visual Effects

Time travel sequences that look like Windows 98 screensavers.

Best for:Friends: Drunk watching with friends who appreciate cinematic war crimes.·Background: Play while doing literally anything else and occasionally look up confused.
Heads up:Sexual Content: Bébé's entire existence is male gaze rendered sentient.
