Sunday's Game (1999)
Splatter-comedy classic in five minutes!
24 June 2004
This was one of the greatest. Old ladies (VERY authentic old ladies with VERY authentic and believeable roles that they play well) get together for a game of what we think is going to be cards. That is, until out comes the revolver for a shatteringly deadpan round of Russian Roulette! I've showed this to a lot of people, and this is the one movie I've got that ALWAYS evokes a reactive response, whether they like it or not. The gore score and body count loudly tick by with about every minute of this very short movie that packs more of a wallop in its teency running time than a good amount of feature-lengths have. To top everything off, it's funnier than hell! There's also some great little nods at the fun-loving wacko streak that seems to really run in the filmmakers, seeing as how Puff the cat is played by "Dennis Woodruff"! I love it when weird people make movies. It gives us other weird people something to watch! Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go see what my brains look like on Mom's wallpaper....
