Classics in the Browning
Directed by Lew Lehman
With Sammy Snyders, Jeannie Elias, Sonja Smits
Not Rated, 96 minutes, DCP
This Canuxploitation classic puts an after-school special, Child's Play, high camp, and Freud into a blender to make a real spicy witches' brew. Or working with the Canadian metaphor, it throws them in a trick-or-treat bag and mixes them up a little, resulting in very uneven snacking. Twelve-year old Jamie is an outcast in his small town — he is bullied, he shows signs of being a sexual deviant, and he has no friends aside from his demonic teddy bear, Teddy. Influenced by commands he hears from Teddy, Jamie lures his unsuspecting tormentors one by one to a forest pit that he has discovered on the outskirts of town, but unfortunately for their sake they do not know what awaits them in... THE PIT!
Free for ND, SMC, HC, and IUSB Students.
