This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

I thought this movie was amazing. It was mysterious and original with really good gore and great camera work. It was just really stunning visually from beginning to end.I'm not a huge Mulroney fan, but he did an admirable in job bringing depth and humor to a role that didn't have a lot of dialogue to work with, which has to be challenging. And it was fun to see him a role other than some stupid romantic comedy. I hate romcoms. I am not familiar with Lindsay Pulsipher, but she worked well with Mulroney and I'll definitely look for her in other films. She seems worth watching.Great supporting characters too. The mad scientist was horrible and funny at the same time, and the cab driver blathering on about Frankenstein was hysterical. There was actually a surprising amount of humor for a movie that was definitely not a comedy.

Well I guess I would have to say .. Run do not walk as far away as possible from this movie as possible! Yes Its really that bad :( Has no value as a motion picture or as a story. It makes little to no sense at all. Has NO plot other then a guy travels and goes crazy / insane ? To bad to because I kinda like Dermot Mulroney .. So .. like one reviewer said .. The next time I want a similar experience I will eat a raw egg with shards of glass in it! Also One reviewer said .. After the screening, there was a brief Q & A with the writer/director. I found it funny that when asked if there was a deeper meaning behind some of the events in the film, he said no, it is what it is... LOL Well The Director got that right anyway!So .. If you have 97 min to waste .. Watch a different movie! And You Will Be Very Happy You Did!

Who is the rambler (Dermot Mulroney)? All we know is that he has been released from prison and is on his way to his brother's farm. But this is not important -- what matters are all the misadventures he has between point A and point B.I really wanted to like this movie. The characters are interesting, some of the story is incredibly funny, and it is all-around entertaining. But, unfortunately, the film is completely disjointed. For every good segment, there is a bad segment, and unfortunately the better ones are in the beginning so as the film goes on the viewer becomes less entertained.Editing might have solved some of the problems, but as a whole I think there is only so much that could be done here... the film comes across as a series of short films or television episodes. And in those formats it might have a strong following. As a feature film, it tends to fail because of the lack of central narrative.

I was one of about 15 people who walked out of this movie during a screening at The Sarasota Film Festival. I give movies a lot of rope to hang themselves and this one hung itself; shot itself through the head and set itself on fire. Oh, wait, maybe I'm flashing back to the movie. BTW...you can't spoil what's already rotten. If you don't have something to say, shut up could be the simple review of this ridiculous piece of junk. The next time I want a similar experience I'll eat a raw egg with shards of glass in it. I can't figure out how two good actors didn't have a sense of the disaster they were part of but I guess you don't know until it's edited.
