Melissa L @Agent99 Oct 25, 2026 One of the worst, and most boring, movie I've ever seen! See more
Apr 12, 2013 Surprisingly good movie showing Harry descent quite rapidly into madness. First he loses his wife, then his job, then events start to happen where his mind slips and he begins to hallucinate and suffer massive delusions. The acting for most of the movie is pretty bad, but the story is quite good, and Raymond Elemendorf really plays distrubing and 'off' quite well. See more
Oct 27, 2012 An insane man has constant halucinations while holed up in an abandoned hotel. This drags on for over an hour until the guy walks into a coffee shop and kills 35 people with a machine gun. End of film. Roll the credits. Bloody awful. See more
Jan 9, 2012 One man's decline into madness culminating in a pointless (and seemingly endless) killing spree at a coffee shop. One softball team's post-game celebration is ruined. Pretty much worthless. See more

Jan 24, 2011 "Bloody Wednesday" director Mark G. Gilhuis convincingly bends his mise-en-scene to reflect the increasing derangement and alienation of Harry (Raymond Elmendorf), a mentally ill man who loses his mind after being cooped up in an abandoned hotel by his distracted brother (Navarre Perry): When Harry plays an opulent piano solo at his doctor's (Pamela Baker) house, the edges of the screen darken, forming a spotlight around the maniacal protagonist. Later, when Harry pretends to shoot at a passing jet outside his window with a broomstick, found audio from a World War II film accompanies his grim fantasy. Like Lynch, Cronenberg, Scorsese, and others, Gilhuis delights in keeping the audience off-kilter, constantly leaving us questioning the validity of what we just saw: Much like Harry, who lives in the same daunting, haunting twilight.
