Synopsis

Thane Furrows, an extremely cynical but unintentionally hilarious children's book writer, wakes up one morning, and, since pretty much everyone and everything annoys him, begins another day of complaining to himself. However, the day proves to be much different than normal when Thane begins to recieve strange phone calls, letters, and voices in his head, all indicating that something will happen at 8 o'clock. As the day goes on, Thane rants and raves about the things that annoy him, as the clock slowly ticks closer and closer to his destiny

houseofjanzen Me and my friends used to watch this over and over. Really basic idea but hilarious. And it's on YouTube for free if you look it up :)
jlscal99 His Vietnam rant and his build-up to confronting his boss's wife in his apartment are all timers for comedy. Too bad almost nobody has seen this movie. The only copy I have is a copy of a copy of a copy on VHS. I can't find anything anywhere but if this thing were to be re-released on DVD with a little bit of promotion, it would quickly become a cult classic. The entire movie is set in and around his apartment which some find annoying but the list of one-liners from this flick are fantastic. If you have a friend who has seen and enjoyed this movie, you can laugh for hours just spouting one liners from the mind of T. Furrows. I use it as a litmus test for people I am considering for inclusion into my inner circle. If they find it funny, I know we can connect intellectually.
matrixmary-theone I love movies so when asked the question what is my favorite movie, I can never narrow it down to one, but if I had to, I think this one may possibly be it. I don't think it is good for "mainstream" people, but if you are a fan of quirky movies, this is IT! My two daughters and I absolutely love this movie and probably quote it on a daily basis. I don't know why they like it, but I can tell you that one of the things I love about it is I can relate to it. I can definitely get on a rant, and then I sound a lot like Thane Furrows!! I think there's a little Thane in all of us, and those of us who aren't ashamed to admit it can find the humor in this movie. Besides, how can you not love a movie where Jim Carrey plays death? I would highly recommend that everyone see this movie at least once, and if you're like me, you'll want to see it again and again! A real off-beat comedy classic!!
styates OK, I admit, this movie is a bit on the odd side, but I can't help laughing hysterically every time that I see it. It's about a children's book author Thane Furrows who is basically paranoid and tired of his life. Thane is just so p***ed off at everything, that you can't help but laugh at the insane things that he rants about. I love the whole talking to the camera aspect of the movie, it truly makes it unique. By the way, don't watch this film expecting to see a Jim Carrey movie. He's barely in it and doesn't do a whole lot. Actually I could have done without that part of the storyline all together. I hope that this comes out on DVD some day as I would LOVE to own it.PS "What is this SH*T on here? It's there again!!!!
