Although on surface level this film may appear to be nothing more than an unserious flick, however I would argue otherwise. In order to truly grasp the deeper meaning of this fine film one must turn to the tragic background of the main antagonist - longing to become a world-famous artist, Andronicus Arcane finds himself continuously shot down by harsh art critics that fail to understand his vision.
Fed up with continually being lambasted, he withdraws into himself, eventually coming to the realization that he wasn't born to merely be a fine artist, but rather a creator of life. He then goes to work creating bratwurst beings pulled from his own DNA that he then freezes along with himself, timed to wake up within a hundred years. However, his plans take an unexpected turn when him and his bratwurst companions are unexpectedly awoken by the two Colleens.
Eventually he decides to unveil his newest sculpture to the Colleens, and upon receiving constructive/good feedback he feels as if at last he has made it. He puts his bratwurst creations into the sculpture, directing his children to destroy his haters. However, things take a dark turn quickly when his own creation turns on him and kills him.
It's a tale full of unfulfilled dreams, personal anguish, and pathos. It's a modern Greek tragedy - Frankenstein reinterpreted - a story that delves into the depths of man and his relationship to his creations, and how man has the ability to overstep his boundaries and into the realm of God, only to be shot down for his hubris. The film also discusses the topic of life and art - how art imitates life far more than life imitates art, and how art is the giving of oneself over wholly to expression, whether that form of expression be visual or otherwise. One can only achieve a masterpiece when one creates something that is timeless in its truth, and honest in its perspective concerning the human experience. That being said, I must be obliged to give the film a 10/10, as I felt that it has explored the depths of the human soul and experience.
