Still confused!, 1 August 2005

Author: wipz0 from United Kingdom

The concept for the film sounded like an alright nights viewing; two dudes have party and take lots of drugs. But straight from the beginning i knew this was not the case. This film looks as though it was funded by money found on the floor and filmed with a camera found in the bin, but that didn't stop me watching it, i needed to know the point to the film, and by the end did i find one, let me think, no. It does present an image of Hollywood that is not portrayed in many films today, the seedy dirty side where the normal people exist. And its good to see that there are bum stoner's in the land of peroxide and silicone.

The director/actor/writer of the film clearly sees himself as some kind smooth new hotshot, but the fact of the matter is, his acting couldn't be any worse. he walks around mumbling and over acting his lines, trying to act super cool. Oh and Shannon Elizabeth, the tits from American pie, is in it for about as long as it take to say, pointless.

Watch this film at your own risk. Just make sure your not sober and you didn't pay.

Nepotism at its worst., 14 October 2004

Author: xfile1971 from Northbrook, IL, USA

My guess is that the only way this film got made was because Lawrence Tierney was the uncle of the writer/director/lead actor of this thing. The elder Tierney sounded awful and it comes as no surprise that he passed away not long after this was made.

The whopper of a plot is a joke. Two slackers don't work and they are getting evicted from their apartment. They throw a lame party and trash the place. That is it. I mean...really, really it. The "script" consists of non-stop swearing, plenty of drinking and drug use, and bad parts culled from other bad films. In one scene a guy pours beer in his cereal instead of milk. Seen that before. There's also the part where beer is referred to as the "breakfast of champions". Seen that before. They even included the crusty old gag where some girl totally chews out a guy and the guy's pal says, "I think she likes you." Morons.

My guess is that the people who gave this a 10 were intimately involved with the making or distribution of this picture. I really can't even think of one nice thing to say about "Evicted" so that I don't sound totally negative. Shannon Elizabeth couldn't even be called a supporting actress in this. She literally only has a handful of lines and is barely seen at all. To prominently place her on the cover of the DVD is completely false advertising and the people at York Entertainment are crummy for tricking consumers. 1/10

If you said there was a film worse than this, then you'd be making a sad insulting joke, 10 February 2006

Author: Steveo1986 from United Kingdom

I rented this so-called film just today from Blockbuster because there's a quote on it reads that it's a cult-classic. I was badly mugged.

Cult-classic?! Yeah, if you happen to be part a cult of drugged low-life zombie-like slackers. The idea for the film seemed OK, and that intent was to make like fireworks. But the film ended up an atomic bomb.

This is the worst film that's it's ever been my displeasure to see, and I'd have to be dead to watch it again. It just looks like the makers of this cheap trash got drugged, got a camcorder, dragged Shannon Elizabeth and filmed a couple of typical stoner-slackers around exposing their pitiful existences, and other idiots they encounter; including the father of the non-crippled slacker who has a more irritating voice than Steve McFadden.

Basically the two main characters have no life; no job and basically no money. All they do is smoke, take drugs, drink beer and milk (of which the label design just have "Beer" and "Milk", which looks like they raised the money for the film by going round picking money up from the ground), go around meeting other slackers, and speak like drugged zombies . Their speechlessly mad landlord evicts them from their apartment, so the two idiots decide to throw a party in the flat on their last night there by trashing it and being really noisy in the intention of annoying the landlord. That's it, really.

I couldn't finish this film because I got so bored and repulsed watching it, so I don't know how it ends, and frankly I couldn't give a bleeding crap. Practically no script which lacks progression, very deadbeat and pretty poor acting (Shannon Elizabeth was OK) and no entertainment. In fact, you'll get more entertainment by twiddling your thumbs over and over. Yes, it's seriously that bad! The people behind this "film" should receive a life ban on making films.

Don't ever consider watching this, even if you really like Shannon Elizabeth (she only appears briefly in a few scenes, anyway). And that brings me to the fact that she is on the front cover, this is obviously very misleading and deceiving, and that they've done it just to lure people into watching this long load of rubbish. Take absolutely no notice of positive reviews or quotes made about this film to save yourself 100 minutes; even though you'll most probably give up on this film before the end, if you ever pluck up the courage to watch it as a frightful joke (and even then I'm concerned for your sanity).

WORST. MOVIE. EVER.

Holy crap! This movie was horrible!, 5 May 2004
Author: bobbakazoo3 from In a cornfield

I rented this because...well, I don't know why. This movie is utter garbage. The acting is unbelievably bad, the directing sucks, and the plot doesn't exist.

The movie was so low budget that they couldn't even afford anything with a label on it. The beer is BEER brand and the milk is MILK brand.

The brothers in this were in two other movies together. One rated a 1.6/10 and the other a 2.8/10.

Don't be deceived by Shannon Elizabeth on the cover. Its a trap! The movie will give you brain damage!

I'm sure they had good intentions when making this, but why did they have to put it out on DVD?

Endless Pointless, 5 January 2010

Author: SampanMassacre from Sandwich, Wrapper

*** This review may contain spoilers ***

Writer-Producer-Director (of only this movie) Michael Tierney, nephew of iconic film noir legends Lawrence Tierney and Scott Brady, and son of their much-lesser-known younger brother Edward Tierney, at attempting to make a purposely-pointless film ended up accidentally making a point: that if you purposely set out to make a film suck, it will.

The, uh, plot centers on two humorless slacker drone cousins, Micro (Michael Tierney) and T (Terence Tierney) who live in a crappy apartment, eat cereal with beer (seen that a hundred times), and take to the streets where they meet a homeless speed-freak (who resembles an extremely poor man's River Phoenix).

The cousins, about to get... yes, EVICTED from their premises, decide to throw a party. But the fun of hating this movie (that occurs while they're cruising around L.A. drinking generic beer, which becomes banally involving) withers when the actual party begins, and for the next (what feels like an eternal) forty-five minutes we cut back and forth to various people who look like they're all buddies of the director as they drink beer, swear, philosophize, swear, drink beer, snort meth like it's cocaine, quote classic films (mostly Apocalypse Now), and swear some more: while drinking beer.

Then Micro takes acid (from a guy who's part of a very confusing and completely pointless B-story involving a briefcase) while fully clothed in a bathtub and has a dream where he's starring in his own presidential campaign commercial: RAPPING in front of an American flag while continuously "flipping the bird". At this point, things get so downright insanely awful it becomes fun-to-hate again... But soon enough the party's over and so is the movie. The stale soundtrack consists of songs by the same (very annoying) band, The Weird, with an assortment of rockabilly-punk-rock jangles, all part of a fictional radio station's lineup (can you say Reservoir Dogs K-BILLY RIPOFF?!).

The only thing that's partially recyclable are scattered scenes with Micro's neighbor played by (the one and only) Lawrence Tierney, a crusty yet likable old codger who tosses such pearls as "Get a job", "Don't do drugs" and "Buy new shoes". Perhaps if the entire movie was about an aimless slacker conversing with a world-weary tough guy played by the toughest actor Hollywood's ever known (and with MUCH better dialog), this would be a cult classic - something Michael Tierney obviously tried hard to seem like he wasn't trying to do.

Oh and Shannon Elizabeth, whose image, and name, is featured on the DVD cover as if she's the main star, is in this movie for about five minutes total. Then again, if she were in it more, would it matter?

I couldn't DIS-agree More! I rather liked it!, 2 September 2007

Author: Lesha Holland (chesterette@gmail.com) from Sham Diego, California

Let me preface any and all comments w/ the following disclaimer: I have absolutely no relation, association, or connection with the filmmakers and/or principals of this film, other than deciding to further investigate Michael Tierney after viewing (He's so Adorable;So Hep!) I mean, Yeah, it's a "Repo Man" "homage"-to-the-point-of "ripoff", but as an elderly (40) Recovering Punk-Rocker, I thought they captured the general punk ethos/spirit/whatever, along w/ Cali Acid Damage, very well! I bought this for A Dollar, so maybe that DOES color my critical thinking skills here--It was SUCH a pleasant surprise; you gotta dig thru a WHOLE LOTTA CACA to find the DVD gems @ the 99-cent-store! Lesha Holland loved this flick for what it was!
