GuineaPig When I got my hands on this movie I wasn't expecting much after reading some of the reviews but I was pleasantly surprised by it in the end.The movie tells the events leading to the massacre of a bunch of people on a coffee shop by a madman named Harry. The movie depicts Harry's struggles to discern what's real and what's a product of his own deranged mind. That provides the basis for the eerie atmosphere surrounding the story and all the surreal experiences that happen to Harry kind of engage you in an interestingly bizarre manner.The movie is very flawed with, overall, weak performances, although Raymond Elmendorf is convincing enough as Harry and you kind of end up feeling sympathy towards him for his condition. The music is awful and IMO one of the biggest low points of the film. The story is somehow confusing since you can't tell what's really happening and what's Harry's imagination but I think that's what the movie intended.The events are probably based on a real life event in 1984 when a madman named James Oliver Huberty ended up murdering more than 20 people in a McDonalds in San Diego.
djprocopio I am so glad to see that other people have seen this film. My friends and I are huge fans after a Sunday afternoon viewing of Bloody Wednesday. There is a scene where the head "gangster" (who talks like Wayne Newton) gives Harry a speech in a pool hall. It lasts about 5 minutes and makes absolutely no sense. It goes along the lines of: "You still want that gun in the window? What are you gonna do with a gun anyway, they're no good. You need one of these (pointing to a lead pipe), one smack across the mouth with one of these babies and you'll wind up with a four thousand buck dentist bill. There's a lot of fat citizens in this town that think they got it made with they're gold watches and chains and they're credit cards. I hate the bastards. S*** man I eat steak every night, costs me 15 bucks, body needs the protein." If you miss this speech and other wonderful scenes such as the trial where the teddy bear is the judge, you are missing out on a critical part of human life. Do not delay going through this experience. If you already own it do yourself a favor and watch the pool hall speech again. Phenomenal.
polysicsarebest Bizarre film from the same guy that brought us Night Train to Terror, this movie is about a guy who is friends with a talking bear. He sees a bunch of weird stuff in a hotel (kind of like The Shining... VERY MUCH like The Shining, in fact) and then he sort of goes insane for no apparent reason. The climax of the film is the tagline to the movie, so it's no surprise that he kills almost 40 people, also for no apparent reason. Odd film that goes nowhere and is pretty much unmemorable after you get done watching it.However, I really enjoyed myself as I watched it, and it definitely held my interest. It's not really a confusing film, and it's loaded with tons of good scenes: The main character shows up naked to church in the beginning of the movie. That scene alone is priceless. Though I liked this film, it'd be difficult to recommend it; I have no idea who else would like a film like this. You might as well check it out, but the ending has already been ruined for you.
zium This movie is not for everybody. Not just because of its violent content but also because it's very cheap. In fact, not much of the movie shines. The directing sucks, there are full of editing bugs and the acting isn't at its best. But, the storyline is quite original, but a little based on "The Shining", and the ending sequence is excellent. Exactly my kind of ending. This is a good movie to watch at 2 a.m. I would definitively make a remake of this.
