New Line Cinema
Directed by Werner Herzog
My rating: 1.5 stars out of 4

(Blu-ray, Shout! Factory)
Dwarfs at a remote correctional facility act out when they are left alone. One "teacher", also a dwarf, holes up in his office with one of the prisoners roped to a chair. He trades threats with the other prisoners from the roof top. The group of dwarfs constantly giggle and laugh as they destroy anything they can find. They also torment the animals on the property. Herzog lets the animal cruelty get away from him, with inexcusable scenes of cockfighting, a pig carcass, maimed chickens and a monkey tied to a crucifix. The "little people" here are not treated with much respect, either.
