Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Jerry (Ryan Reynolds) is that chipper guy clocking the 9-to-5 at a bathtub factory, with the offbeat charm of anyone who could use a few friends. With help from his court-appointed psychiatrist, he pursues his office crush (Gemma Arterton), but their relationship takes a sudden murderous turn after she stands him up for a date. Guided by his evil talking cat and benevolent talking dog, Jerry must decide whether to keep striving for normalcy or indulge in the sinister. Written by Lionsgate |

Hey Jerry? Jerry Hickfang: Yeah? Bosco: You remember last week when you said that there was an invisible line that separates good from evil and you'd thought you crossed it and I said no no no you're a good boy? Jerry Hickfang: Yeah I remember, so what? Bosco: I've changed my opinion. See more » |
