I have a rather large umbrella for horror but even my attitudes are tested by the comic revenge movie Paul Dood’s Deadly Lunch Break. Included here provisionally, and worth seeing, but Idunno man….at least Johnny Vegas got paid? If anyone had a line on how to watch Tales From The Lodge let me know…

The Best and Weirdest from Fantasia Fest 2021
As usual, the 2021 edition of Fantasia Film Festival brought us some "interesting", peculiar, and weird weird stuff from all around but the following movies are some highlights (only some of the many many) you might want to seek out at some point when you feel the need for something odd and/or unusual…
BEYOND THE INFINITE 2 MINUTES
What is it about:
Directed by Junta Yamaguchi BEYOND THE INFINITE 2 MINUTES is about a group of eclectic friends who figured out that their screens can project them 2 minutes in the future. It might not seem like much time but it sure leaves enough room for various shenanigans involving fight, love, and laughter!
Why should watch it:
This one-of-a-kind one-take will blow your mind and make you wonder why you (or someone else) did not think about it before! It would remind one of another Japanese masterpiece ONE CUT OF THE DEAD - who will forever be the one-cut standard by bringing the oner to a whole ‘nother level! But BEYOND THE INFINITE 2 MINUTES wisely choose to take the continuous shot from beginning to end, and to infinity and beyond with the image within images concept; or screen within the screen within the screen within the screen! On top of that, they are also toying with time in the most hilarious short span ever, or as the title suggests 2 minutes! So you can say this is definitely the most inventive and crafty movie you’ll probably this year(maybe too crafty! As there is no denying it would have been a far superior movie and a perhaps huge hit considering how "time loop flicks" are all the rage if it was visually more appealing)
Moral Of The Story: 8.5/10 ****
TIONG BAHRU SOCIAL CLUB
What is it about:
What if there were a place, akin to a luxury retirement village where one could go to fulfill their potential by becoming an upstanding member of a community while finding happiness by conforming to the weirdest norms of society!? That is what Tiong Bahru Social Club is about, and this is where our protagonist will end up all while his mother is fighting to keep her house from “happiness sellers” who are trying to “gentrified” their neighborhood...well sort of!
Why should watch it:
This high-concept and eye-catching sci-fi comedy will stay with you for a while thanks to its colorful sets and resourceful production design making the most of the city surroundings. All the characters are quirky and elevate a plot that might feel a tad familiar but adds a fresh twist to the BLACK MIRROR-ESQUE (lite) story.
Moral Of The Story: 7.75/10 ****
IDA RED
What is it about:
IDA RED is a heist-like crime drama with a dark dark vibe… It follows criminal brothers trying to pull one last (dirty) job to make enough money to live good, and hopefully lawful, lives with their incarcerated terminally ill mother. That is only if she gets an early release or finds another way out...
Why should watch it:
Director John Swab sure has a busy year with IDA RED and BODY BROKERS! The former might be one of the more “formal/normal” films to be shown at Fantasia Fest, but it sure has its weird moments, particularly one scene bringing to mind the likes of KILLER JOE in the kitchen (but fret not it is not as traumatizing as that fried chicken scene!) Frank Grillo was a minor revelation in that one, going slightly (very slightly) against type here - would not be surprised if it gets some recognition for that turn. Josh Hartnett is also in this one as the main guy, and guess he is having a “thief-like-roles renaissance” of sorts in recent years, and gotta say, it works! The rest of the cast is quite good, and, eh, Melissa Leo is in her too doing what she does best: intimidate people!
Moral Of The Story: 7.25/10 ****
PAUL DOOD'S DEADLY LUNCH BREAK
What is it about:
Directed by Nick Gillespie PAUL DOOD'S DEADLY LUNCH BREAK is about Paul, a down on his luck but super optimistic and confident thrift store worker's journey to fame. He wants to be the next winner of a Got Talent-like show by singing cheesy songs in old-fashioned sequin costumes made by his sick mother. Things might not work the way he planned but his path to glory - and revenge - will no doubt be noticed on social media and beyond…
Why should watch it:
PAUL DOOD'S DEADLY LUNCH BREAK will surprise you in all kinds of ways and, for better or worse, it tends to zig when you think it would zag. It is both too much and not enough but it keeps you intrigued thanks to - well! - intriguing intrigues, a solid ensemble, a poetically idiosyncratic approach, and some plain ol’ stupid fun shenanigans.
Moral Of The Story: 7.5/10 ****
KRATT
What is it about:
This Estonian movie is about what can go wrong if you leave the kids at grandma's for a few days without cell phones while you are having a life crisis! But KRATT is also about the nostalgia of summer vacation at grandparents' house in a remote town (without internet!) where there is not much to do but hang out with the local weirdos and maybe get into devilish supernatural stuff because you don’t want to do chores or you are just bored!
Why should watch it:
Well, no one was expecting this film to go the way it did!
It can be family-friendly enough (and maybe with a way too childish humor - no less humoristic!) but is also a perfect midnight madness type. KRATT has an old-school Halloween movie look about it that makes it a fun ride to watch with a few giggles here and there and some gory stuff. Not mind-blowing stuff but perfect for its destined purpose and effects.
Moral Of The Story: 7/10 ***
REMAIN IN TWILIGHT
What is it about:
REMAIN IN TWILIGHT is a story about friendship and coping with the loss of a loved one; so grief, regrets, and learning to let go, to forgive, BUT to NOT forget! We follow 6 longtime friends, all with very distinct personalities, styles, and lifestyles akin to a boys band, as they rehearsing a dance routine (they did back in high school years ago) for a friend's wedding. They will spend some time together re-bonding and reminiscing about their crazy days and emotions.
Why should watch it:
This one is certainly not like another! One might have expected (more) stranger things to happen earlier on, or more gradually, instead of going from pretty “normal” stuff or maybe even taking itself too seriously, to a totally bonkerz last act! But to say more will be spoilers, and in all fairness, this is what makes REMAIN IN TWILIGHT good! The cast chemistry, which can itself be a character, was great, and the acting altho over the top (it comes with the genre probably!) was somehow...sweet and believable.
Moral Of The Story: 7.5/10 ***
HAND ROLLED CIGARETTE
What is it about:
This neo-noir-esque movie set in Hong-kong and directed by Chan Kin-long follows a grumpy ex-soldier who had a falling out with his bros from his army days and is now getting by by doing some shady businesses around town. His life will be turned upside down (like actually!) when he decides to do what’s right by protecting an immigrant - who is also involved in some shady stuff- and fight prejudices (also literally!)
Why should watch it:
HAND ROLLED CIGARETTE is the most “prestige fest” type of the bunch. It looks really slick with great cinematography, a solid cast, and a complex dramatic story with pathos...PLUS some serious action scenes! In addition, it is very “of its time” So what’s not to like, as it might as well be one of the best films of the year; period.
Moral Of The Story: 8/10 ****
WONDERFUL PARADISE
What is it about:
Set in Tokyo, WONDERFUL PARADISE is a film about a special kind of party, or the party to end all parties! Due to financial hardship, the Sasayas family has to sell their giant mansion, but as they are desperately trying to get the movers to do their job, weird and weirder things start to happen... At the same time, a wide assortment of people starts to show up at the house after seeing a tweet about a party happening there. Little by little, the Sasayas and the movers joined by foreign tourists, family members, friends, neighbors, newlyweds, drug dealers, youngsters looking to have fun, homeless man, and other randos, will know each other and spend possibly the craziest night of their lives in this “wonderful paradise.”
Why should watch it:
WONDERFUL PARADISE is the craziest movie from the festival and is maybe one of the most absurd exuberant extravagant films of the year (Think Jodorowsky surrealism but super SUPER lite, swapping lyricism for goofy and made in Japan!)
It has a bit of everything for everyone, from ghost playing card games, to man-eating coffee beans, to a Bollywood dance scene, to body-swapping, to kids turning into sticks (you also read that right and that might be our favorite thing about this film!), to bloody double-stabbing, and other random nonsensical supernatural occurrences… So it'll most likely won’t be everyone's cup of tea (especially when all these flavors are mixed) but if you are prepared to roll with it and to try this mix-and-match then you might end up happy about a thing or two!
Moral Of The Story: 7.5/10***

"Paul Dood's Deadly Lunch Break"
“Paul Dood’s Deadly Lunch Break”
“Paul Dood’s Deadly Lunch Break” is a great concept that could’ve been so much more. Billed as a comedy, it takes deserved digs at religion, authority figures, and society’s obsession with online celebrity culture, but there’s something so sad at the heart of its lead character that it plays as more disturbing than laugh-out-loud funny. Paul Dood (Tom Meeten) is an average guy with a dream. He…
