Am I Missing Something?
Too much about the plot just didn't add up, the writing was bad, some of the scenes were cringey and awkward,
View MoreThe film may be flawed, but its message is not.
The movie really just wants to entertain people.
There's a kind of "Twilight Zone" feeling to this whole enterprise. Sweet looking rabbits terrorize a sweet looking soldier, in what begins as a dark comedy but ends in blood drenched horror. The ending is dark and twisted - but still pretty funny. Looks like it was shot on a shoestring, but great downtown NYC locations. The opening and closing credits and the "Dead Bunnies" theme song are hilarious. I saw this at a film festival in New York, and the director mentioned that this was showing at midnight festivals in Germany. But I don't know if it's ever played in the U.S. This seems like the kind of film that would do well on a station like B Mania.
View MoreThis is one of those weird killer animal movies, along the lines of "Night of the Lepus" or "Willard." Innocent looking bunnies wreak havoc on a well meaning but bumbling soldier, who can't seem to get a break. Time has been good to this low-budgeter. The dark comedy still holds up well. But there are buckets of blood---definitely not for the squeamish!
View MoreBloody good! Or rather, bloody AND good. If rabbits-on-the-rampage are your cup of tea, this is the flick for you. A pacifist soldier accidentally runs over a bunny rabbit with his jeep. The guy feels so guilty, he goes AWOL, and returns home to New York, only to discover that rabbits--killer rabbits--are everywhere, watching, waiting and plotting their revenge. This low budgeter is ferociously funny and quite gruesome in a black comedy sort of way. The actors are spot-on, but it is the opening and closing credits (stop-motion pink bunnies dancing to a Spike Jones-type song) that raises this film from an "8" or a "9" to a total "10" !
