"Crazy Murder" is about a mad homeless man in the streets of New York City. Like other people said , is not a film for everyone. Indeed, it isn't. I didn't believe in everything I heard about this movie. But it really surprised me. It did the impossible.There's a lot of bizarre here. Feces, blood, spit, meaningless monologues and even some funny moments, but not enough to light up the sad movie that it is. The score sounds perfect mixed with all the surreal imagery. I found some 'Lynchian' touch all over the flick. If you have enough stomach to go through it, you must go. It's a strange experience that leads us to the limits of bad taste and to transcendence of trash turning into art. A symphony of destruction. A grotesque poetry about the lost of humanity. I think it's a amazing movie. It belongs to the Pantheon of Extreme and Weird Movies, aside A Serbian Film, Salò , Martyrs and Subconscious Cruelty. In the year of 2015, when it seemed everything was already said and done, this is a actual achievement.

This is a nice piece of polish cinema with a modern and universal message and theme. A sign of the time. The time of emptiness, loneliness , fear , depression, virtual escapes. Being rich, intelligent and beautiful are just not enough anymore. What can fulfill the void of the soul? Who knows? The movie is not just about a teenager with sexual identity problems being victim of gossip. The hole looks deeper. I think this movie it's a cold one. With cold characters. We cannot fell any sympathy for any of them. They seem strangers and distant people. Personally, I can only despise them. There's nothing about them that can take off tears or laughs from me. This is the impression that I have got after all. Maybe the movie was meant to cause these feelings on its viewers. Maybe to denounce how heartless and careless we can be nowadays. Or maybe we are just watching such a spoiled kid with such spoiled parents that simply don't deserve any pity and if any of them commits suicide or fall from a stair and break the neck... Who would care?
