Like PINK FLAMINGOS and ERASERHEAD, Frank Henenlotter’s grotesquerie seems best seen after hours—its outré delights isolated from everyday society. Duane, an unassuming young man, checks into a seedy Times Square hotel carrying a large basket containing his violent, deformed twin brother. The siblings have come to the City to seek revenge but a budding romance for Duane upsets their plans. Brattle debut!
