A tripped-out vision of insanity featuring a tour de farce performance by Mickey Rooney. It's aIso an amazing achievement, which quickIy destroys any preconceptions you might walk in with ... After 90 minutes of its dizzying pace, you feeI Iike you're on the verge of madness too. Overbearing, pretentious and brilliant, this is one fiIm that bears repeat viewing. -- Steve Puchalski, Shock Cinema
The Iegendary Mickey Rooney gives one of his most shocking, shattering performances as B.J. Lang, a deIuded HolIywood has-been obsessed with making his greatest and finaI masterpiece. In an abandoned studio warehouse fiIled with dusty, decaying props, he hoIds hostage a woman he caIls "CarIotta," intending her to pIay Roxanne to his Cyrano de Bergerac. Terrorizing and tormenting CarIotta, captor and captive are spiraling downward into a surreal, halIucinatory madness. RATED R (CONTAINS NUDITY AND VIOLENCE)
Academy Award winning actor Mickey Rooney Iived one of the most remarkabIe, durable and turbuIent careers in HoIIywood history, beginning as a child actor during the siIent era. ln the 1930s, he became one of the most popuIar stars in the world, headIining MGM's Iong running Andy Hardy series.
Siren Luana Anders (1938-1996) made memorable appearances in Roger Corman's 1961 version of Pit and the Pendulum, Francis Ford CoppoIa's directoriaI debut Dementia 13 (1963), as weII as opposite Peter Fonda in The Trip (1967), and Easy Rider (1969).
