This story of a freeze dried pet salesman who becomes a televangelist is one of the strangest comedies to come along in years. And that’s a good thing. While most directors would be tempted to let the audience in on the joke, Edwin L. Marshal plays his cards close to the vest, so that the weirder the story gets the straighter the cast plays their parts. Pastor Shepherd—a standup comic whose video ministry, prayerhour.com, is an internet sensation -- deserves a lot of credit for the wide-eyed wonder he brings to every scene, no matter how insane it becomes, and the supporting cast should get a medal for not guffawing every time he opens his mouth.
