Bunnyman

As a connoisseur of bad movies, I've seen more than my share in the last 30 years of seeking them out. Movies with low production values but high on heart and creativity. Movies made on a shoestring budget that have often transcended their limitations, achieved much more than what was intended, and inspired others to do the same. The Evil Dead would be a shining example of this success. Some fall short, but many others have succeeded on some level. Just about all have at least some subtle value, or even a small cult following. This is not one of them. I'm not sure if I can even articulate how bad this movie is. Bunnyman is basically a sad commentary on where movie making is lately. It is not even close to being in the "So bad it's good" category, being watchable just for the laughs alone. This one is "So bad it's just stupid". You can't even make fun of it because it's physically painful to watch. It's as if a group of 12 year olds made a movie, never having seen a movie before; this would be the result. The situations, and the actors' reactions to them, are, well... just plain stupid. The whole thing is just an insult to your intelligence. For instance, a psycho in a huge truck is bashing into a car in a road-rage type assault, and the 6 passengers in the car don't yell, scream, or say anything for the longest time. One even sleeps through it (maybe he wasn't acting?). Is there really a 4-door sedan made that can't outrun a 24' long, 3-ton flatbed truck? After he runs them off the road and disables their car in the process, their first reaction: let's take a nap! The whole thing is just nonsensical crap. Very few movies manage to actually assault the viewer's intelligence and incense them to the point of rage for having wasted their time, but Bunnyman delivers on that one. This one makes "Alien 3000" look like Oscar material. You could literally strap a video reorder to a park bench in a large city, point it to the nearest intersection, hit record, walk away, and have a more interesting 90 min product to watch. If this counts as a movie, absolutely anyone on the planet can make movies. Hands down the worst dreck ever put to video. I'd rather be strapped to a chair and forced to watch an endless loop of Progressive insurance commercials. You have been warned.
