Very Bad Things
This is an "old" movie (late 90s) but I didn't see a thread, so here goes.
This is not so much a review as it is a warning. The title is literal. The movie is full of very bad things. By "bad" I mean "terrible". Terrible like watching a litter of puppies get crushed by a steamroller (assuming you like puppies). Terrible like Requiem for a Dream. I saw the movie when it came out, I knew it was bad, and yet I decided to watch it again anyways. Big mistake. It's labelled as a black comedy, but only Satan would find this movie funny. Maybe not even him.
It's got Cameron Diaz - who, ironically, I hate less than usual in this movie - playing the control freak megabitch bride-to-be, Christian Slater as the groom's slimy real estate agent best friend, and some dudes you'd recognize in the other roles.

At the bachelor party, they accidentally kill a hooker. Bad stuff happens. Lots of people die. Everyone else (except Cameron Diaz) ends up crippled - even their dog.
Take extra Prozac before watching this one. You'll need it.
Maybe I am a sicko, but I love this movie.
When i went and saw the Hangover I was pissed that it was a watered down version of Very Bad Things. It's totally a dark comedy and your mouth drops to the floor a couple times but I don't think it's Requiem of a Dream depressing.
I'm worse than Satan =(
