SparkMore n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

Yazmin Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

Cristi_Ciopron It's a very lyrical take on the events, and not a clinical rendering, the loner is a generic misfit, and his delirium seems at once striking and basic, and the idea of the movie was to convey the delirium of a drastically lonely misfit, as eerily as possible, and this delirium is strongly conveyed; its sense of spookiness and uncanny suggests comparisons to other vaguely similar movies from the '80s and '90s, including Lynch, the Coens (and, closer to our days, 'The Machinist'). It doesn't come across as exploitative, the way 'Scream Bloody Murder' is; on the contrary, I would of liked the storyline to linger more in the deserted hotel. The script doesn't have delusions of phony quirkiness, it has gusto, feel; the protagonist is a misfit, sank into insanity, and the script what the delirium feels like. This movie expresses strongly what it has to express, because there are no delusions of artiness, and it's indeed unnerving, quirky and spooky. The delirium becomes indistinguishable from the reality; maybe the brother did show up at the hotel, maybe someone gave the lead character a gun.Some of the acting is perhaps less then good.Pamela Baker plays the psychiatrist; Teresa Mae Allen, a better actress, plays the wife.The obviously apt script belongs to a good writer, Yordan, whose heyday has been in the early '60s (and preceded by 1 ½ decades of also impressive scripts).

chow913 IMDb does it again. They list this film as "1987" despite the fact that the MPAA copyright date clearly says, "XMLXXXV." That's Roman numerals for 1985! Also NONE of the images used they include are actually part of the actual movie! IMDb.com, always trying to outdo Censorpedia's inaccuracy.Now that I've release that from my system, I'd first like to state that I've never been a big fan of going postal films. They never seem bold enough to take a stand as to whether the mass shooter is justified in his actions, tragic victim of circumstances, mentally ill or just plain evil. But 'Blood Wednesday' is just goofy enough to work.Not "goofy" as in a dark comedy, but goofy as in there are A LOT of elements in play here.Our dangerous loner is Harry. Right from the opening scene it's obvious Harry is mentally ill. He looses his job as an auto mechanic after he simply forgets how to put an engine back together. Something he's done many times before.Harry is hospitalized and an attractive doctor Dr. Johnson first speaks with Harry's ex wife whom wants nothing to do with him. So he's left in the custody of his older brother Ben who doesn't really care about him either. Ben just abandons him in an abandoned hotel. It's this old haunted abandoned hotel which gives 'Bloody Wednesday' its real unique edge. The audience themselves doesn't know where reality ends and Harry's insanity begins. Is the hotel really haunted? Is Harry really having an affair with Dr. Johnson? Just because Harry's clearly crazy doesn't mean these things aren't true. The viewer is left to decide for themselves.Most of the ghosts in the hotel are nice. The friendly bellboy warns Harry about a haunted room which stopped being rented out after two suicides. But when Harry actually talks with their ghosts he's discovers their deaths weren't so simple.Harry also talks with his teddy bear whom tells him to kill. When a gang of street thugs break in, Harry holds them at gun point while the bear weighs judgment on whether they should live or die.Harry also starts an affair with Dr. Johnson. Or does he? She denies it. But later lets him sleep on her couch. And Harry's ex wife later says she knows about the affair and wants to blackmail Dr. Johnson. So was it real after all?The same gang of muggers see Harry admiring an Uzi in a store window and ask, "What are you going to do with a machinegun?" Gee what would a mental patient want a machinegun for? Harry answers, "Use it." The thug later steals the Uzi and gives it to Harry just of laughs. Wow, what a nice guy! He steals a $10,000 gun and just gives it away? Harry's first fatality is an elderly security guard whom one of the hotel ghosts says murdered him. Has Harry just committed a cold blooded murder? Or has he merely brought justice to a tormented soul? Harry's next victim is his ex wife, simply because the teddy bear tells him to kill her.The final shooting rampage is so over the top it's comical. Harry merely enters a dinner and fires non stop with his Uzi for three full minutes, releasing hundreds of rounds! He then loads another clip and fires hundreds more! While he's clearly using a 25 round magazine he only reloaded after hundreds of shots! This is just plain silly. Also, since this all takes place over the course of six minutes, why are all the victims just standing there waiting to get shot? There's no rush for the back door or people hiding under tables or pleading for mercy! They just stand still for six full minutes! The ONLY diner who actually does anything is the one man who shoots Harry dead with one head shot from his own gun. Why was he waiting six minutes to shoot back? All in all 'Bloody Wednesday' has its moments. The story is a gripping one you'll want to follow. The big question is why Harry goes postal. He isn't angry at life or society. The climax just seems tacked on as a way to end it with fan service.

polysicsarebest Bizarre film from the same guy that brought us Night Train to Terror, this movie is about a guy who is friends with a talking bear. He sees a bunch of weird stuff in a hotel (kind of like The Shining... VERY MUCH like The Shining, in fact) and then he sort of goes insane for no apparent reason. The climax of the film is the tagline to the movie, so it's no surprise that he kills almost 40 people, also for no apparent reason. Odd film that goes nowhere and is pretty much unmemorable after you get done watching it.However, I really enjoyed myself as I watched it, and it definitely held my interest. It's not really a confusing film, and it's loaded with tons of good scenes: The main character shows up naked to church in the beginning of the movie. That scene alone is priceless. Though I liked this film, it'd be difficult to recommend it; I have no idea who else would like a film like this. You might as well check it out, but the ending has already been ruined for you.

sibisi73 Up there as one of the worst films I've ever seen. The most shocking thing was the performance of Ray Elmendorf in the lead part, closely followed by everyone else in the cast and crew. Unintentionally funny, I found myself laughing out loud in parts...FBI man: Did you point this broomstick at the plane?FBI man 2: It's not illegal to play with broomsticks, but I wouldn't recommend it.WHAT?? I was in stitches! Logic goes totally out of the window when Harry is sacked from his job for taking an engine apart and finding it won't go back together because 'it doesn't fit'. For some reason his brother decides to put him in a closed up hotel, where he can go even more insane than he already is. Here he starts seeing ghosts, dreaming about his doctor, and being terrorised by a group of Hollywood rent-a-punks. All this just to build up to a mass murder in a burger bar because 'society, his friends, and his family have all let him down.'Mind numbingly awful, annoying synth trash music, and it's attitude towards to mental illness is questionable at least.
