So, 'M is for Mermaid' is this wild mix of absurdity and low-budget charm. The story’s simplicity is almost refreshing – two dudes out fishing, and they catch a mermaid with some rather generous attributes. The practical effects are kind of a trip; you can tell the budget was tight, but there's a certain creativity in how they brought this mermaid to life. It definitely leans into the goofy side of things, and the pacing has its awkward moments that somehow add to the overall vibe. The performances are over-the-top, which fits the tone perfectly. It's unique in its own right, and you can't help but appreciate the oddball nature of it all.
This film has had a bit of a rocky road in terms of distribution, often floating around in limited release formats. It seems to have developed a niche collector interest, especially among fans of oddball and obscure cinema. Copies are somewhat scarce, which adds to its allure in collector circles, as folks are always on the hunt for those hidden gems that stand out for their sheer eccentricity.
