Expected more

everything you have heard about this movie is true.

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

Chris Cunningham is a genius of FX and editing when it comes to establishing a tone or touching on a theme. But when it comes to telling a story (as Borat says) "not so much". The story in this slice of a locked away 'elephant man' is not a story as much as is a glimpse into a world abhorrent. The 'rubber' part of johnny is all in his mind, we are to assume seeing as he is a cripple when ever that door opens. Perhaps only the dog can see those 'liberation' thoughts. That's pretty much it. I would love to see Chris do a full length feature using his skills directing a well written story, (like mine). Chris, if you read this, I have a script that is perfect for you. It's got all of your favorite themes, style of humor and outright creepiness that is your signature. You can find me through Motel Films in L.A.

This creepy short film has been rumored that it's real footage of a badly deformed human being. It's not; all it is, is just a short homemade horror movie, which I thought didn't make much sense. Yes it was quite disturbing and well made, but what was this movie about? I've been watching this movie quite a few times and I barely got it. The closest description that I can give you is that it's just about some sort of creature or a badly deformed human being who lives in a basement of a house with his dog and an abusive parent or owner. Although it doesn't make much sense, it's worth checking out and can also be seen on various websites.

May or May Not Contain Spoiler.. don't think so though!! I have never posted a comment about any movie here before, but I felt compelled to post about this little flick.With all the hype surrounding this movie, I was expecting a terrifying thriller but instead I was treated to a 4 minute long laser show with brief breaks in the 'action' to feature a poor special FX job on Johnny spinning in his wheelchair, and a frightened small dog.Despite the claims of 'shape shifting mutant', I saw nothing of the sort, other than what looked like a blob of latex with teeth pushed against a photocopier.Worst money I ever spent in my life.

Rubber Johhny is the latest effort from British film maker, Chris Cunningham. Cunningham has extensively worked with electro music legends, Aphex Twin, together they have created some of the most disturbing music videos ever, including 'Come to Daddy'.Rubber Johnny is a disturbing trip into the mind of a isolated, disfigured misfit who is locked in a basement. His only company is a dog.Using rapid editing and distorted camera work, Cunningham has created a visceral nightmare which manages to shock during it's six minute running time. Cunningham obviously has a lot of confidence when it comes to combining music with vision, and this is Rubber Johhny's genius. The film will undoubtedly leave a sick taste in your mouth, but the running time is disappointing. I was left wanting a lot more.Please give Chris Cunningham a big budget so he can create a 90 minute nightmare.
