So, 'Ruthie Joins a Death Cult' is this quirky little comedy that dives into the absurdity of seeking connection in the most bizarre of places. The pacing feels a bit off-kilter at times, which adds to its charm; it’s like you’re wandering through Ruthie’s awkward journey alongside her. The practical effects, while not overly grand, have this offbeat feel that matches the film's dark humor. The performances are surprisingly relatable, especially the lead, who captures that loneliness so well. It’s distinctive for its blend of lighthearted comedy with such a macabre theme, showcasing how even death can be a backdrop for friendship. Quite the odd gem, really.
This film has been a bit elusive in terms of physical formats; I’ve seen it pop up on some obscure independent labels, but good luck finding a pristine copy. It has developed a niche following among collectors who appreciate its unconventional humor and thematic depth. As for scarcity, it’s not the easiest to come by, which definitely piques interest in the community.
