Echoes of Eternity
- Tagline
- Some memories bite back... hilariously.
- Description
- In the retro-futuristic expanse of the Space Age, the celestial city of New Europa thrives with intergalactic cultures and alien commerce. But beneath its shiny veneer lurks a memory-eating menace: supernatural creatures preying on the pasts of the city's inhabitants. Enter Vincent van Gore (Cuba Goodginger Jr.), an eccentric artist with a flair for the melodramatic, and his pal, the grizzled supernatural hunter Wolfgang Fang (Kiefer Sausageland). Together, they embark on a comedic crusade to hunt down the menacing monsters that threaten to erase history itself. From the mind of director Terry Gulliam, 'Echoes of Eternity' is a rollicking ride through a world where the past isn't just forgotten, it's on the menu. Joined by the enigmatic historian and bard, Jonathan Harker (John Bearrymore), this oddball trio proves that when it comes to fighting the creatures of the night, laughter can be the sharpest weapon.

As a film critic, it's not often that I get to chuckle my way through the annals of the MPAA's 'R' rated galaxy, especially one patrolled by a character named Vincent van Gore. But 'Echoes of Eternity' proved to be a stellar exception. With a tagline promising memories that 'bite back... hilariously,' I braced myself for a supernova of silliness, and Terry Gulliam's cosmic caper did not disappoint. Cuba Goodginger Jr. channels his inner Van Gogh-gone-wild, portraying an artist so melodramatically over-the-top that one cannot help but cackle as he dodges metaphysical mastication. Kiefer Sausageland's Wolfgang Fang is the grizzled cherry on top of this absurdist sundae, growling punchlines with a side of supernatural snark. John Bearrymore's historian provides the narrative's necessary (and equally hilarious) glue, reciting lore with the gusto of a bard who's had one too many at the space tavern. The memory-eating beasts of New Europa may be a menace to society, but they're a boon for comedy, with each chomp serving as a setup for the next rollicking gag in this farcical feast. While some may find the humor as fleeting as the citizens' elusive memories, 'Echoes of Eternity' is a raucous reminder that the past, especially when served with a side of satire, can be a dish best savored amidst laughter.
