The Nutt House

I bought this film from a local pound shop so I cant say I'm surprised at how bad it was,but I have had some enjoyment out of this film. But it has to be the most stupidly bad comedy film ever made, while watching the film you cant help but think that if the story was put in the right hands it probably would have been a good movie (with Jim Carrey in the lead and maybe David Zucker directing) but it is one of those films that is so dumb SO badly acted and directed that you actually cant help but laugh all the way through it, so does this make it a good comedy because its funny for all the wrong reasons?, NO! its absolute crap. You can definitely see why raimi took his name off the film.

..but enough for a morning. I wouldn´t go rent it not even for a buck, but I would watch it again on T.V. It is entertaining, but it´s really stupid and the actors aren´t that good. Let´s just say it barely makes the cut. Besides, it´s a little surprising watching X actress Traci Lords trying to act in a comedy.

this movie is stupid. some parts might get a giggle or two but this is a really silly film. it's ok if you like slapstick comedy or you are a person who is a fanatic of dumb and dumber or chevy chase films, but otherwise, you might like to leave this one on the shelf. but for a laugh get it, if just to see the stupidity.

Seriously, the Trivia for this film says that the writers/producers/whatever had their names removed from the credits 'after' they saw the result??? What about paying attention 'during' the filming...I cannot understand how 'anyone' could have needed to wait until 'after'the filming was complete to realize that this was a turd on the face of humanity. I don't know what that means exactly, but it sounds bad and that's the point.

I needed a random inoculation after seeing this film, not to mention the days, no 'weeks; of grovelling to my friends who I convinced to watch it with me.

Picture this....the lights are down, the popcorn is out, I've built the mood by describing the trailer I saw on another Video...the film starts....and within about 5 minutes I notice the sound of popcorn being chewed has stopped. Silence has filled the lounge room....

Of course, in hindsight I should have turned the video off, but like a train crash where the driver of the train turns out to be the conductor's pet poodle rather than a qualified individual, a certain fascination took place. Sure, I felt sorry for all of us knowing we would never be the same, but we were all unable to look away...yet no words were spoken. Stunner perhaps? It's possible, but 13 years on I still have flashbacks to the ridiculous sheep-like noise which echoed through the room every time the main character had a personality change...

Who can forget the looks on the faces of my fellow movie watchers who moved straight past blaming the film itself for being so bad to blaming me for renting it. I can still feel the stabbing pain of their dagger laden looks....the "Well...I'm going home" which was 'overlooked', simply for a swift and silent exit from my house. The empty feeling I was left with in a house full of sleeping parents in one room, sleeping brother in another, and me...alone in front of the television watching the credits (sans Writers/Producers mind you) roll up the screen, my thoughts bypassing the obvious "what were you people thinking!!" and moving straight onto "What the hell just happened!?"...

My life was never the same...(until of course I saw Jaws 4 when in fact it was 'exactly' the same as when watching this!) So, I highly UNrecommend this film.

Check out my 'other' UNrecommended films cos I sure can pick 'em!

What are the odds that you will find a movie so random, so different, so interesting, and so unusual that it makes all other movies seem obsolete? "The Nutt House" is one of them! In fact, because of these descriptors, it's actually quite hard to tell whether or not this movie actually make sense to me at all. Most people feel like a rock or a boulder after watching this film, but I felt changed after seeing this. It's one of those movies that is actually worth laughing at. No other movie out there is more different or strange than "The Nutt House." As for you guys out there that don't like these kinds of movies, don't watch it. For the brave and the bold, go rent it!
