Okay, I loved this. It's a Tubi original, so you can tell it had a modest budget, and it doesn't matter at all. It is a such a fun watch. It hits a lot of tropes and cliches, but things don't unfold as you'd expect.
Also, Lowlifes doesn't even have a Wikipedia page?!?! This is so under the radar that it doesn't exist on Wikipedia? That's CRAZY.
Every other review already says it, but "I'd rather eat pussy than people!" really is a killer line. Pun intended.

Reviews
I'm a big critic of Tubi Originals, but this was a <b>blast</b>! It started off with the usual family on a road trip of sorts, but quickly went off trail and turned into a big WTF type of film, and I enjoyed every minute of it.
Do not sleep on this one.
<B>Final thoughts:</b>
Do not read anything about the film. You can thank me afterward.
