From Bright Lights Film Journal:The "political camp art musical" is a rare bird indeed, and perhaps justly so; as a movie's genres multiply, so surely must the problems. But Existo has so much manic energy it works, despite having the intermittent feel of a metastasizing performance piece. The title character is a hyper idiot-savant who looks like a demented janitor with greasy hair and a worn-out suit. In this bizarre post-apocalyptic world, the religious right has taken over but a pack of revolutionaries — artists and queens mostly, it seems — led by Existo stages "illegal" performance pieces and "drive-by art events." Song titles include such ditties as "Hegel's Navel," "I'm a White Bread Poodle," and the hummable "Fuckin' A," which features Existo bouncing up and down on a big beach ball screaming the title phrase to an audience of jaded scenesters. Existo is the multitalented (and quite mad-looking) Bruce Arnston, who also wrote the fun music. The cast appears to be a lot of performance artists and queens from Nashville, including the late Jim Varney of Ernest movies fame. There's lots of rude imagery, dildos every few minutes, snipes at the lunatic right wing, and plenty of drag, and the filmmakers ultimately keep the chaotic fun rolling right along with the cultural critique. Inexplicably, an early cut of the film featured a great opening number cut from the DVD release. It's the memorably vulgar "Just Do Me," warbled by a fat drag queen who looks like Jonathan Winters genetically spliced with Rae Bourbon. Don't believe Amazon or the Internet Movie Database. There is a DVD.
