As so-called video nasties go, this one is fairly mediocre in terms of gore and shocks.  Overall - overrated.<br><br><hr>User:Mong the Merciless on Sat, 29 Jul 2006 15:14:49 +0000<br><br>This movie features one of the most unlikeable anti-heroes ever (played by director Ferrera).

He is driven mad by his inability to complete the painting. He sees a commercial for a battery operated drill, kills bums, eats greasy pizza, and kills many people that are close to him. Red. More on this one later. <br><br><hr>User:milesbogus on Sat, 19 Aug 2006 15:21:28 +0000<br><br>A struggling artist in New York City is in the midst of creating a masterwork oil painting of.....a buffalo.
