Dark and Twisted
Victor Mancini (Sam Rockwell) is one sick puppy. Not only is he a sex addict, he's also obsessed with finding out who his father is. To this end, he works hard to raise the money to keep his mother (Angelica Huston) alive despite her deteriorating condition and dementia. She lives in a mental facility and to pay the cost, Victor feigns choking in restaurants in hopes of some good Samaritan saving his life and becoming a true savior and helping the lying Victor by giving him money.
Jonah Bobo plays Victor as a child who is easily manipulated by his sometimes present mother. Brad William Henke is Victor's best friend who works with Victor as a re-enactor at a colonial theme park and also attends a sexual addicts therapy group with Victor. Joel Grey has a small role as the leader of the 12-step therapy group. Kelly Macdonald plays Victor's mother's apparent doctor.
Based on a novel by Chuck Palahniuk. Screenplay and directed by Clark Gregg.
Run time: 1 hour, 29 minutes
Rated R for strong sexual content, nudity and language.
My personal rating: C+
