hey! has anyone out there seen this movie? It was only playing in select theathers and is now out on DVD. it was co-produced by Drew Barrymore, and both she and Patrick Swayze have secondary roles in it. I thought it was great! and I loved the soundtrack too. Anyone else??? :)

Hi there, Joya! I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one who has seen and and LOVED it. I was wondering is he "bad" or just uber-creative? Everyone, this is an indie film which was overlooked by many critics, but I highly recommend it...especially if you love evil bunny rabbits! ~ january

and I thought it was weird. It wasn't bad, I was just confused as to the whole bunny/schizophrenic/time travel thing going on in the movie. I only went to see it because my best friend's favorite actor is Patrick Swayze :p

YAY! January, I loved it too.... the coolest part (besides the Evil Bunny Fred!!!) was when you saw the "liquid extension" emmanating from the peoples' chests. almost what I would imagine you would see, if you could see people's engery / solar plexus charka.... ..... SO...... what do you think? Did all that stuff happen -- and he was remembering it as a dream as he died? or was it simply a twisted dream??? we do know that he was taking medication and seeing a psychiatrist... but that's the only "reality" we know before the airplane part falls on him.... all else was entirely in his own mind... also, don't you love the song "Mad World"? and did you see the website? pretty cool. :)
