These Onions Don't Make Me Cry is this odd little piece from 1997 that kind of lingers in a strange space. The tone oscillates between dark humor and a kind of whimsical absurdity that really keeps you guessing. There's not much out there about the director, which adds to its mysterious vibe. The pacing feels a bit uneven, but it gives it a quirky charm, almost like a hidden gem waiting to be unearthed. You'll find the performances are a mixed bag, but they work in this offbeat context. The practical effects, while not groundbreaking, have a certain homemade quality that gives the film its unique texture. It's one of those films that you either get or you don't—with an atmosphere that's pretty distinctive.
This film has had a limited release over the years, making it somewhat of a rarity in collector circles. Various formats exist, but finding an original VHS can be a challenge due to its scarce production run. Interest seems to ebb and flow, but those who stumble upon it often appreciate its oddity and charm, making it a conversation starter among collectors.
