My Life with Morrissey
(2003)

Love or Hate it - It's a Movie! (You didn't make it)
This is the kind of movie you are either going to totally love or totally hate.

It's beyond low budget. It's a crazy, stupid, ridiculous, demented mess of a movie that's just so fun to watch. It's the best kind of amateur effort that there is. 999 out of 1,000 times someone sets out to make a movie like this, it dies at some point during the process. That's why this movie is so important. By all rights this should never have existed, but for the few of you who like this sort of thing, there is no substitute.

It's hard to think of another movie this even compares to. I could see this appealing (in some ways) to (some) fans of things like Trailer Park Boys, The Foot-Fist Way, Freddy Got Fingered, Schizopolis, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Mallrats, The Lost Skeleton of Cadavra - stuff like that.

If you're the kind of person who loves low-budget DIY cinema AND dementedly stupid comedy YOU NEED TO SEE THIS for yourself.

Morrissey and anything to do with Morrissey is highly irrelevant here for the most part, so be not afraid. It's more to do about a crazy obsessive person's demented interactions with her co-workers and the world at large, played for big stupid laughs, to the point of absurdity. The object of her obsession could have been almost anyone or anything else - just that Morrissey tends to elicit this kind of crazy obsessiveness more than most.

It's a shame that more people who would absolutely love this movie and laugh their asses off don't get a chance to be exposed to it.
