"Payback's a BIIITCH!"
God, what an entertaining movie. Stupid, yes, but entertaining nevertheless. Garret Dillahunt easy bumps what would otherwise be a 3 or a 4/10 film up to an even 5/10. And koodos to the people-that-be for casting Laura San Giacomo to play the homely wife of the cheating Thomas; it's a cliche which always warms my cold, cold heart.
Standing there, on a road that leads to anywhere ...
Good read on the ratings bump due to GD's acting - also gotta toss in his frustrated "NYARRR" right before he tosses the computer into the lake.
He really reminded me of Will Forte's dark, stifled geek characters on Tim and Eric. I guess that is a compliment?
Also, recommended DATE WITH DARKNESS: ANDREW LUSTER SOMETHING SOMETHING. Features Andrew Luster hallucinations (Freddy Kruger style), late 90s style, and a rushed re-shot cameo by a mulleted actor who is supposed to be a pre-fame Dog the Bounty Hunter. IF you liked Tallhotblonde you'll LOVE DATE WITH DARKNESS: ANDREW LUSTER SOMETHING SOMETHING
I saw that movie Date with Darkness, that guy was a creep how he put that "date rape" drug in their drinks - then had his way w/them and taped it! He did some sick crap to these women who unknown to them that he drugged and taped it.. yeah Dog the Bounty Hunter caught him - but there was some *beep* that DBH wasn't in his "zone" to capture him - I say kudos to DBH, he did what the FBI couldn't he caught that sick SOB!!!

I liked it too. Garrett Dillahunt did indeed improve this film. As, surprisingly, did the usually flat Laura San Giacomo.
She did well as Thomas's homely but loving wife.
This film reminds me of "Fatal Desire", with Eric Roberts & Anne Heche.
"I'd say this cloud is Cumulo Nimbus."
"Didn't he discover America?"
"Penfold, shush."
What blew my mind (besides Tommy's inexplicably nutso behavior) was that the woman got so angry at Tommy pretending to be who he wasn't!
SHE WAS PRETENDING TOO.
