So, 'Smoked Lizard Lips' is this quirky 1991 comedy that takes a bizarre premise and runs with it. The film's got this offbeat charm as it juxtaposes a recently deposed dictator trying to impose his old ways on a sleepy Northern Manitoba town. It's like watching a satire on authoritarianism unfold, but with a distinctively absurd spin. The pacing can be a bit erratic, but it lends itself to the film's chaotic atmosphere. The practical effects, while not groundbreaking, add a certain charm that feels right for its time. The performances are a mix of over-the-top and surprisingly nuanced, making it a curious watch for anyone into oddball cinema from the early '90s.
