Storyline

Mild mannered tax accountant Elliot Sherman is what he calls a "Baxter": the kind of calm, unexciting fellow who "wears sock garters" and "enjoys raking leaves." Loved by bosses and parents, Elliot is a perfectly nice guy. And that's his problem.

Baxter is made up of four fangs and three stars. [Full review in Spanish]

There's wisdom in this mean little number. And you haven't seen anything quite like it, that I guarantee.

A bizarre endeavor, never quite reaching its thematic goals, but it does have some interesting scenes of mental illness to keep it involving.
