One thing that annoys me more than anything in movies is that a movie with very little depth to the plot is hailed as being mysterious. From reading most the the reviews on "Jug Face," the consensus seems to be that not only is it a good movie, but that there are a lot of secrets hidden in the movie.

This movie is pretty idiotic actually and those who claim it has re-watch value must have a completely different standard for movies than I do. The tale is completely nonsensical. Yes there are plenty of questions left unanswered, but this is not because the movie is deep and hard to understand. Questions are left unanswered because there are no answers to them. This movie paints a picture that is more like a child's finger painting than a Van Gogh.

What you get is a story about a small community who worships a hole in the ground and routinely sacrifices one of its members to the pit. When you watch the first scene that shows this, you will likely believe that it is a ripoff of Shirley Jackson's legendary story "The Lottery." The townspeople gather around a pit and a potter brings a jug that was molded to match the face of one of the community members. That person immediately has his throat slit and the blood pours into the pit.

The main character discovers that she is the next one to be sacrificed and goes long ways to prevent this. Because of this, more people are killed. You get to see a spirit from the pit show up and see Ada having all these idiotic hallucinations. The best part, however, is the wonderful townsfolk who know the sick stuff this community does and not only do they keep silent about it, they immediately turn Ada back over to them despite her informing them that her community was going to hurt her.

This ending of this film will irritate than make them happy. Ada goes ahead and accepts her fate and dies. Rather than some wonderful moment occurring, she apologizes to a community about to murder her because other people were killed instead of her. She apologized to a bunch of dumb hillbillies who should have left the area where the pit is and refused to participate in the idiotic ritual.

The lesson in this movie is do not protect yourself from being killed because if you do, the people that are trying to kill you will die. A truly worthless and stupid message from an equally worthless and stupid movie.
