Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever
Lumsdal Good , But It Is Overrated By Some
CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
morrison-dylan-fan Being in the mood to watch a short cartoon just before I set off to bed,I was pleased to spot an interesting-sounding 1915 animated short being mentioned on IMDbs Classic Film board,which led to me getting ready to take a sip of the magic brew.The plot:Sitting in a bar smoking & drinking,a monster suddenly pops out of a mans head.Initially thinking that the monster will join in the drinking,the man soon discovers that the monster has other plans.View on the film:Running at 36 seconds instead of the 3 minute running time that IMDb list,director Victor Bergdahl makes every second count by using a thick felt tip pen style which gives the short a feeling of being pulled straight from a newspaper.Along with the charming newspaper feel,Bergdahl also delivers a surprisingly early message about alcoholism,with the magical brew/drinks being shown to contain an evil spell.
