Really enjoyed this movie, all kinds of wrong in a really good way. Really funny with solid performances, loved the random cameos.
Without a doubt one of the best indie films of the last ten years, a real piece of art. Loads of blood and gore and sick things said and done, a true tribute to the 80's from someone (Liam the director) who clearly knows what he is doing.

My Bloody Banjo is the debut feature film by Liam Regan. A funny, gory, messy horror comedy gem that is slowly gaining recognition as a modern cult classic. Peltzer, a young office clerk and eternal loser seeks revenge on his co-workers and the bullies that have turned his life to a living nightmare, he can't do it though without the help and influence of his deranged imaginary best friend Ronnie. There's a lot of pitch black humour and over the top gore. Laurence R. Harvey from Human Centipede fame and Lloyd Kaufman both appear in minor roles as well.
No pun intended - and I do hope this does not happen to anyone ... although apparently it can happen. And it did happen (based on a true story - don't be afraid of that moniker!) to the director ... as he is happy to admit and tell us in the commentary to the movie. Liam is a sweet guy and a cool Dude, so I may be biased a bit. But he cherishes bad reviews too. He knows what he did here - and he really embraces it. Blood, violence and all included (no nudity though, except male - which ... sticks out).
If like me you have no clue what a bloody banjo is (not a musical instrument .. well I reckon you can use it to produce music ...) .. you are in for a treat! No sensitive soul should be watching this, but I think I made that clear. Low budget Filmmaking and insanity at its best (or worse, depending on how you view it). There are quite a few Banjos placed all over the movie - and I am certain you may be able to find even more Easter eggs if you look for them.
Looking forward to the next gem - eating miss campbell ... and the pun already in the title ... have to think of another one for my summary line! Anyway, there is a Directors cut and if you are into low budget horror movies that are quite insane, but look really good (no pun intended), I can recommend this highly ... this is not Citizen Kane, it never said it is, you get exactly what you pay for ...

Legendary. Not for the faint of heart, either. Liam Regan put together a great Director's Cut of My Bloody Banjo onto Blu-Ray. It's fun, campy and gory as you might imagine. I loved the performances and the cast. The in-film referances were fun too, "Oh, What a Rush!".
The making of features with the History of MBB making it or not even making it onto the BIG Festival Screens. Good Stuff! Nicely shot on Red Camera.
Dani Thompson was a treat and there is a bit of cruelty towards the main actors and smaller rolls. Will REVENGE from the leading cast player provail? Watch My Bloody Banjo. Fun!!!

Do check this undiscovered and under the radar gem. I won't give too much away but strong performances from a fabulous cast including scream queen Dani Thomson. Inspired by the Troma type movies in the USA but with a British Twist.
