By the time I watched a late night screening at Fantastic Fest in 2006, Funky Forest had already accumulated a cult following, while also alienating others whose heads split open at the silly weirdness of it all. (Several people walked out of the screening after the first scene, while others scurried away after an hour or so.) In my book, it's the best post-modern musical ever made. I was humming songs and fondly replaying entire sequences for weeks.
