Great Film overall
TrueHello
Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.

10/10 just for being the most insane movie I've ever seen. Visions of Suffering, Death Powder, Reflections of Evil, and a few other movies have held that title over the years, but no way will this be replaced.Stop-motion, supersaturated colors, completely just.. insane, ridiculous.. fast cuts... about a BILLION cuts, by the way. Completely chopped-up narrative. Okay, there's not much of a story. This is all style. It doesn't matter. Just so BIZARRE. Dialogue that doesn't match voices. Almost the whole film takes place in black rooms with high-contrast props and insane costumes.Sorta like a cross of the films of Adam Cooley and the early films of Tsukamoto. Worth a watch. Don't mistake my rating: This isn't a GREAT movie, but it is just... wow... INSANE.

There is much fun to be had at those underground festivals of neon light and thumping music known as raves, but there is a considerable difference between participating in one and hearing someone's account of one, second-hand. "Dandy Dust" is a zero-budget British "experimental" film that plays like a silent movie crossed with a particularly lame MTV video and the pulsing neon of an all-night party. The style is pretentious, the plot incoherent, and the edits, overexposures, and loud colors deflate any "humor." In short, it's a senseless disaster–a movie that clearly looked like fun to participate in, but is sheer torture to watch.

Look, I've got a pretty open mind, and can appreciate all kinds of weird movies, from arthouse to exploitation, but 'Dandy Dust' is one of the most useless and BORING movies I've ever seen! If it lived up to the hype of the video cover blurbs I'd be a happy man, but it's hard to believe they're talking about the same movie as the one I just endured.Makes 'Gummo' look like 'Citizen Kane'.

This film has no clear narrative, but visually it managed to keep my interest. I liked it's psychedelic images and it's trippy style of lighting and editing.How it was ever described as "pornography" by some critics, I'm not sure about. It's dark and surreal sex scenes are hardly erotic.I found them more amusing than anythingWorth a look if you're into experimental film and tired of mainstream cinema and yearn for something different. A sort of cross between Metropolis and Nightmare before Christmas.
