Review
Barbiturate popping Pepa is pregnant by her ex-lover and can't find him. He's with his new mistress but his ex-wife is stuck in a sixties time warp and on the loose with a gun. Pepa's girlfriend is involved with Shiite terrorists, and they're all on the verge of a nervous breakdown. Brilliant!!
