Best movie ever!

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

Weirdsville might come off as another stoner comedy to some, but to me it's more then that. Maybe because it's Canadian and maybe because the mall scene was shot in my hometown of Hamilton, but I really took to this film. It simply works.The two leads are Wes Bently (weird camera neighbour from American Beauty) and Scott Speedman (mutated vamp/werewolf from Underworld) and they work very well together. The satanic cult folk aren't too great but you get use to them. The girlfriend, Taryn Manning is the girlfriend. The story goes like this, two friends think that the girl has died from an overdose, so they go to bury her in a drive-in. When they get there, they stumble across a few people performing satanic cult rituals. Those satanists chase after them when they screw up their rituals. Oh yeah...and the girl is not really dead. So the rest of the film is them running from these guys. It doesn't sound like much, but it was both fresh and entertaining.Canadian films get the label of always being 'too artistic' or even for a lack of better words 'too Canadian' but Weirdsville in some sort of way breaks that mold. It doesn't glorify Canada like 'Going The Distance' which means it doesn't stick out like a sore thumb. Unless you knew the locations and some of the slang, you'd think it was some other American film.I recommend this film to anyone looking for a entertainment in this variety, it's a funny low-budget entertaining film. In addition, the soundtrack is great. Give it a rent....if you can find it.

It's just wonderful to see how three best friends wind up in a story that's just so complicated and poetic. I was amazed by the outcome of every situation and I think there should be more movies like this one. Even the music was perfect for the movie. I also really like it when the makers put something useful to know in the movie and in this one, they certainly did, but what I liked most is that the piece that the mouse (or rat) played in the story, without it, the movie would have been less meaningful and I think it's really great that people can come up with these things to put in their movie which completes it ... without it, the film wouldn't have been the same. ... great piece of work

Weirdsville = = the off kilter of After Hours + turns of 2 Smoking Barrels + twists of Trainspotting + a dash of Reservoir Dogs + the warmth of Broomstick Boys + a shake of Run Lola Run + a sprig of Fargo and Office Space.Not what i expected in a small movie. I expected so much less, and got so much more. I was caught off guard in it's bright happy portrayal of very dark things. Drugs, crime, gangsters, prostitution, Satan cult and murder all felt like being at a cozy winter slumber party. The minimal cast and barren scenes were perfect, and lonely winter bleakness of the sets enhanced the characters lives and yet another level of warmth to them and to the script. I was on the edge of my seat most of the time... not in thriller suspense as much as the constant 2 hour smile and ongoing hearty feel-good laughs like i was on a crazy roller coaster of tickles in the Scooby-Doo haunted house... for adults. I really wish there were more films like this. Not a big budget, not a big name roster, not under scripted, not pretentious, not goofy slapstick. But it was well shot, well edited, well paced, well scripted, simple-smart, warm, fun and funny... and about drugs, crime, gangsters, prostitution, Satan cult and murder, and stand-by-me friendships in the winter. It never blew my mind, and never felt cutting edge original, but i really loved it because it held me, and quirked me, and it really felt so fresh, free, filling and well done from the title to the end of the credits... including a great soundtrack of music I have never heard of, but wish i had.

The most positive thing I can personally say regarding Weirdsville is that I did at least keep watching until the end. That said, I just as soon wished I had used the time for something more rewarding. I felt the movie though stylish and reasonably well produced just fell flat in both story and humor.Classic stoner flicks suck us in in spite of the fact most of us do not actually identify with stoners. I mean a good movie of the stoner genre is wickedly funny and built around likable stoner buddies, i.e., Cheech & Chong, Harrold & Kumar, Bill & Ted...et.al. In Weirdsville I never felt a like for Dex & Royce particularly. They were in a predicament that had them racing against time to come up with money (reminded me of The Blues Brothers). They were being chased by several different "nut jobs" (like the Blues Brothers). The ensuing situations just were not especially funny (NOT like the Blues Brothers which was uber-hilarious).Granted I'm not the primary audience this flick is aimed at, I mean I'm 48. However, I know a good stoner flick when I see it and this misses the mark. Simply put, not awful by any means...Just not good enough to recommend.
