Sloppy the Psychotic

Having watched (and reviewed) Deadly Detour last year, I was pleasantly surprised by Sloppy the Clown, Maniac Films latest offering.

Magnitudes better than their first film, Sloppy is pretty good stuff, engaging the audiences on several levels. Initial portrayals of Mike's humanity, his struggles against both alcoholism and unemployment giving the character a depth unseen in many films. Like Popeye takes his spinach, people need to watch out when Sloppy gets his drink on- a bottle of booze and a bad day are all it takes to turn Sloppy into a rampaging killing machine, his maniacal nature matched by a certain vindictive creative streak in the many ways he finishes off his victims.

Good sound, good dialog, good acting, good fun, Sloppy slows down from time to time with car scenes and some prolonged sequences, but overall, Sloppy blew away my expectations for the film. This is one psycho clown that knows how to party.

Johnh Pickles here,

today I made a cup of joe and popped on my dvr to some sloppy the psychotic. (I will never have anything but 2 milk and a splenda.)

the movie starred a guy who happens a clown

he got fired from his job ( I was fired from Wendy's for reasons I cannot legally disclose, but we have all been there I am sure)

Sometimes getting fired makes you feel like a clown yourself.

I found it scary that he started to kill

he did a lot of killing (there was a lot)

I noticed that he killed some "simple folk" too. Together they ate natures chocolate (dookie). I hope they are okay.

If I had to improve the movie I would try and incorporate my favorite color ( which coincidentally happens to be blue.)

It peeved me off that there was so much red.. especially the nose (sorry for losing my composure.)

I think taht slappy would be a lot more better if he was played by gabriel iglasies (because clowns are quite funny and he is funny. Especially in the show mr iglasies. I really enjoy watching with my grand kids.)

John Pickles out.

Creative killing at its pick! I have to say without the slightest exaggeration, that I have not yet watched a movie that has caused me to display such huge range of intense human emotions as Sloppy the Psychotic did! I laughed, was disgusted, astonished, held my breath, pitied, felt compassion, love, rage, anger... and surprisingly, this comical, horror flick was very thought provoking! Mike O'Mahony and Ehrich Ficke challenged the boundaries of being politically correct and depicted unfathomable and unimaginable, bad, worse and the worst behaviors. Crazy part is, that they did this bloody job with laughter, the most powerful tool, to get across any massage! The movie has a number of very strong subliminal massages. It is questioning human priorities, brings to surface sexuality at its pick and irony of life at its worst! Sloppy the Psychotic is darker than dark comedy pretty much anyone would enjoy! The movie was impressive technically as well. Special affects are at least as good as in Deadly Detour! Mike did a wonderful job of cinematography, points of view, lighting etc. Loved the music by James Costa. Acting was great! I was especially taken by Sir O'Mahony's acting skills on top of his rapidly developing directing genius! All I have to say, THANK YOU!
