last word : there isn ' t much you ' ll get from harsh times beyond two hours of uncreative filmmaking . it does have a few scenes where the intensity steps up , and bale and rodriguez do give worthy performances . with an awful script and poor directing by first - time director david ayer , harsh times does not demonstrate the innovative independent filmmaking i expected . for only a few moments almost two hours in you ' ll finally feel the adrenaline , but for the price of the ticket it ' s better to stay at home and have some beers yourself .

we will be taking harsh action against the perpetrator . we want to send a clear message that corporal punishment will not be tolerated in our schools and learning facilities .
“harsh times” purports to reflect mr . ayer’s background , but much of the flashy gangbanger argot he wields sounds forced and unconvincing . the film builds to a melodramatic finale that would like to make you weep , but by then it has worn out your patience . these losers are too repellent to waste time feeling sorry for .
mr . martinez , the chairman of bauer martinez entertainment , says he still loves the film and has supported it by approving a $ 15 million marketing campaign and relatively wide , 800 - theater release . “harsh times” is set to be distributed by a reconfigured mgm , which releases movies made by bauer martinez and other companies .

the proposed workplace agreement , which had been described as
harsh
by the main workplace union , was defeated by a 58 per cent no - vote in a result announced on monday morning .
massachusetts medical society ( mms ) issued a report in april that endorsed sif pilots . but doctors were criticized several times during the city council hearing for taking that position .
los angeles , oct . 25 — when “harsh times , ” a scorching character study of a violent veteran returning from war in the persian gulf , made its debut at the toronto international film festival last year , the movie raised a stir not only for the unflinching portrait of postwar psychosis by its star , christian bale , but also for the buyer who scooped it up .
i have had an issue with my eye for almost a year and half now . i have visited the doctor almost 5 times about being referred to a specia . . .
the times wasn’t the first major daily newspaper to launch a website . the boston globe , then owned by the new york times co . , had unveiled its urltoken service—featuring free content from the globe and other local news organizations—just a few months earlier . but the debut of urltoken sent a clear signal that newspapers were ready to enlist in the digital revolution .
christian bale is an actor who tries harder . in “harsh times , ” his immersion in the role of an unhinged war veteran running amok on the streets of south central los angeles offers the latest evidence that he will go to any lengths to nail down a character . yet mr . bales’s spectacular technical performance of a toxic bad boy on the fast track to hell somehow lacks an inner core .
by then , however , “harsh times” has signaled that the possibility for redemption is long past . for much of the movie , the pair rides around the neighborhood getting wasted on beer and pot and muddling through assorted brawls , robberies and shootings . a visit to an ex - girlfriend of jim’s is interrupted by the arrival of her new boyfriend and his posse , and the pair end up with a gun .
bom management moved on some very minor sticking points but largely ignored the more constructive approach being taken elsewhere and instead continued with a harsh and divisive agreement that particularly targeted unfair cuts at frontline staff working shifts and in remote locations .
i was excited to watch harsh times cause 1 ) they had christian bale 2 ) gritty crime drama wow . . this movie was crap . the plot was one of the most dull plots to have ever existed ; it starts to take off literally in the last 30 minutes . poorly directed , edited , and shot . the screenplay had no content whatsoever . christian bale pulls off a very committed performance but literally everything else fails .
the complications over “harsh times” — which at first light had some festivalgoers talking oscar for mr . bale — are symptomatic of the perilous road that hollywood newcomers and independent producers face . almost everyone involved was new to some aspect of the business : mr . ayer was a first - time , self - financing director , mr . martinez a brand - new distributor who promptly handed over actual distribution to the newly pared - down mgm .
yet mr . martinez is not actually putting up the $ 15 million ; the money comes from mgm , which had originally expected bauer martinez to pay for marketing and delayed its publicity and advertising campaign when the deal stalled over this and other business issues . ( mgm can count losses on “harsh times” against its other bauer martinez films , “van wilder : the rise of taj” and a michelle pfeiffer movie called “i could never be your woman . ” )
one man who said he witnessed the shooting while walking to work on skid row disputed beck ' s account , telling the times that he did not see the man try to grab an officer ' s weapon .
as things continue , however , harsh times loses some of its edge and begins to look more like a run - of - the - mill crime drama or indeed melodrama . bale gives it his usual scary concentration and he is a formidable screen presence : ostentatiously actorish , but watchably so . with a sparkier script , he may move up to the a division . maybe he can be persuaded to reprise his double - act with rodriguez soon in an out - and - out comedy .
as the times wrote , the address reflected the white house’s feeling that the many diplomats who had asked that the united states back off its aggression “have a moral obligation now to press the north vietnamese for more serious negotiations . ”
this reviewer is a total fucktard ! bashing a great film . yeah this is not some high budget corny , pop corn shit . this movie has a spirit . harsh times is a great movie ! ! ! good acting and directing . it is really a breath of fresh air in today ' s shitty , syropy movie scene . please stop reviewing movies because you wouldn ' t don ' t know a good movie if it fell and hit you over the head . you suck ! ! !
beijing — secretary of state hillary rodham clinton arrived here on tuesday night to a barrage of unusually harsh coverage in china ’s official news media over what they called american meddling in territorial disputes in the region — and then a strikingly warm welcome from the country’s foreign minister .
from the creator of training day comes harsh times , a gritty look at friendship , loyalty and ambition set on the extremely rough streets of south central los angeles . christian bale ( batman begins ) , freddy rodriguez (
six feet under
) and eva longoria (
desperate housewives
) star in harsh times , written and directed by david ayer ( training day , the fast and the furious ) . without a moral compass to guide them , it is only a matter of time before these two misguided friends get lost along a destructive and explosive path from which there is no turning back . mike is feeling the heat from his longtime girlfriend , sylvia ( eva longoria ) : either get a job or get out . but the love of a beautiful woman can ' t compare to the bonds of friendship , and jim and mike are soon cruising the streets of south central , slipping back into a deceitful life of drugs , violence and petty crime , just like when they were kids .
hadija became one of the thousands of asylum seekers to arrive in ireland in the 2000s . in recent years these numbers have diminished substantially . the government is now focused on the harsh reality of homelessness in ireland and the growing numbers of irish families living in the cramped conditions of emergency accommodation .
mr . zuckerberg also spoke about his company’s ambitions to host tv - style live video , an initiative that some media companies , including the new york times , are investing in seriously , despite uncertainty about the rates at which videos will be monetized .
“we’ve asked for a discount because we made a commitment to a marketing budget seven times higher than our contractual obligation , ” said mr . martinez . mr . ayer declined , and mr . martinez said he would pay him by the release date .
“harsh times” is the directorial debut of david ayer , who wrote its screenplay a decade ago , before his script for “training day , ” which tells a similar story about a weakling under a bad influence . both films portray raw american machismo as a disease and the buddy - buddy bond of two guys who goad each other into bad behavior as a psychological suicide pact . it suggests that on the mean streets of los angeles , men , when asked to choose between spending time with their wives and girlfriends or getting in trouble with their pals , will always opt for trouble .
in december 1988 , president mikhail gorbachev of the soviet union had appeared before the united nations pledging drastic cuts to his country’s armed forces . maureen dowd , covering the address for the times , reported that mr . bush’s advisers had hoped for his speech to “match and perhaps outshine” mr . gorbachev’s .
in a film with two very identifiable characters like jim and mike , the key elements needed are a rigid definition of the mood and a pervasive level of intensity ; i found neither of these in harsh times . instead i sat through a dull and lengthy film that takes forever to build up to any moments of intensity , instead wasting time on the childish whims of these two friends . as deep as this story goes , there is nothing at all that helps build it , not even an accompanying soundtrack or exciting moments . the gritty south l . a . lifestyle for two nearly - broke unemployed friends is one of the only parts captured well .
enhanced and slowed by the times for better clarity , the witness ' online video appears to show the man reaching up toward the officer ' s waistband in the area of his holster . an officer can be heard on the recording ' s audio making repeated comments about his gun , though his exact words are unclear .
brill’s views are not extreme . for instance , he thinks it’s reasonable to give away five to 10 articles a month , as newspapers with metered paywalls such as the globe and the times do . but brill does not mention what i think are by far the two biggest hurdles newspapers face in charging for digital content .
a redhead named whitney , standing outside the boston city council chambers , described a crushing spinal injury that introduced her to morphine 30 years ago . now , with fentanyl in most bags sold on the street , whitney says she’s overdosed 11 times since january . if boston had a supervised injection facility , whitney says she’d use it .
a spokeswoman for the department of justice says that “every effort is made” to inspect direct provision centres three times a year , and that the reception and integration agency “strives to ensure” asylum seekers live in “suitable” conditions . she says residents receive “nourishment on a par with , and in some cases superior to , that available to the general population . ”
mr . trump is well known for using harsh language , threats and taunts against adversaries when it comes to domestic matters , often using his twitter feed as a weapon . but he has mostly been more careful on the international front , leaving his utterances about north korea vague , though last month he ridiculed mr . kim after one of his missile launches , saying , “does this guy have anything better to do with his life ? ”
today , it ' s a different picture . legendary is trying to recover from a series of box - office misfires , and the dick clark deal fizzled under heightened scrutiny from chinese authorities and concern over the price tag . with china ' s banking regulator last month starting investigations into borrowing for overseas investment by wanda and other companies , the narrative of wang as a hollywood conqueror is looking more like a tale of hubris meeting harsh realities .
of course , mr . obama was unable to make good on several of those pledges , even as he used the meeting to make progress on foreign policy objectives regarding iran and nuclear disarmament . as the times noted in its coverage , “while much of his language was different and more conciliatory , the backbone of american policy on some issues remained similar to the bush administration’s . ”
the buying spree also sparked a backlash in the united states . u . s . lawmakers raised concerns about wanda ' s moves in hollywood , citing misgivings about the potential influence the communist country could wield over american film and tv content . wang has long had close ties with the communist party elite — a new york times investigation in 2015 said relatives of several top officials own stakes in his company .
i am chinese in china just watched this harsh times , i had high expectation after reading reviews in imdb , am i disappointed by this movie ? no . do i think this movie is superbly great , no . if the director wants this movie to be in theater with high profit , then he has to put more intensities , more dangerous situations , more exlosions . . . the actors are fuckin * great , i was glued to the movie throughout , the ending is actually satisfying anf left us to think about life , about what is true meaning in our lives . the girls are all sexy and beautiful , including samantha esteban , his sister , mexican women , bar girl , hooker in the street , i am 100 % chinese , yet my lust was totally aroused . it ' s not a movie as great as the departed , but it ' s excellent movie , it ' s a tasty beef steak after you worked tired and sat down in your bedroom inserting the movie into my 50usd dvd .
the killing , which millions of people viewed online after a witness uploaded video he recorded , has turned a sudden , harsh spotlight on the misery that plays out each day just east of the city ' s downtown skyline where roughly 1 , 500 people sleep on the streets . although it has underscored the acute challenges police face patrolling the tent encampments where mental illness and drug use run rampant , the incident has stoked long - simmering tensions and anger among skid row inhabitants and advocates who accuse police of being too quick to resort to heavy - handed , violent tactics .
the video from the nearby building ' s security camera reviewed by the times details the moments leading up to the shooting . the footage shows the officers speaking with a man for several minutes . at one point , two of the officers draw their tasers , while the third motions for him to move against a wall . instead , the man tries to climb into his tent . he resists forcefully and swings wildly at the officers as they attempt to pull him out of the tent .
i was impressed by the mere meaningless nonsense of all their conversations . how is it even possible to talk for that long and at the same time not talk of anything . it is probablly very realistic - but there is no need to watch it for 2 hours . throughout the movie i get the feeling that a 16 year old has written the script . . trying to imagine . . the harsh lives of two la hommies . resulting in a very clichee and boring movie . there is very mixed reactions over the movie and i think it depends greatly on who you are - if you will like the movie . i didn ' t . probablly the worst movie i have seen .
mrs . clinton , who has traveled to china often as secretary of state , is generally viewed here as more hostile than other american officials , including mr . obama’s national security adviser , thomas e . donilon . by contrast , a commentary in the state - run global times on tuesday was blunt about mrs . clinton . “many chinese people do not like secretary clinton , ” the commentary said , according to a translation from the chinese by the american embassy . “the antipathy and vigilance that she personally has brought to the chinese public are not necessarily in the united states’ diplomatic interest . ”
about half - way through i was thinking ' where ' s this film going ? ' . . . but the payoff at the end was one of the most emotionally striking i ' ve ever seen so it adds up to very unusually - paced revelation and a truly unique and deep buddy - film . i ' m bowled over and thinking
there but for the grace of god go i .
the warrior path is full of harsh pitfalls and this film says so much without ever being preachy or explaining too much . it ' s like a
choices map
in shorthand and needs to be seen by every guy attracted to danger and living on the razor ' s edge . it has the power to change lives . i ' m grateful to everyone involved in it ' s production .
well , i have to agree this movie felt very real . . . . at times you usually hear music , all you hear are the sounds of yelling and frantic driving . it is just like scarface , you can ' t help but love the character but he fucks himself over , and its so very depressing . but i love watching it . also whoever wrote that review . . . . no taste . whoever it was , they said it was uncreative , and it didn ' t build up and flow . well maybe it was too creative and fricking innovative because it was something a little less traditional than that person is used too . wow whoever that was is lame .
great actors , very generous . script seriously lacking but made it truthfull more often than not . how many times can you say dude in one scene ? check out the benining and count ! lol . and they ` re supposed to be adults ? they acted like teenagerss ! but it is possible , so . rythm too slow , so so editing and a little long . and yet a lot of tension in a couple of good scenes . satisfying ending . . . how else could it have ended . the best thing about it is that it made me think about what young men are coming back as from this stupid useless war ! and how they are left alone with their nightmares . not great , but not a bomb either . 6 . 5 / 10

jim is such a psycho and mike is such a patsy , we don ' t care about these guys . we ' ve seen dozens of more interesting head cases in dozens of smarter films .
endless scenes of the two guys riding along , venting and cursing and chugging beers play like acting - class exercises , badly written ones at that .
a crazy little film , modest in its scope but grand in its ambition . it paints it ' s story in loud primary colors , with intense pressure cooker characterizations .
a movie that seems gritty and pointless for its first third , begins to grow in meaning as the pointlessness snowballs into absurdity and then tragedy .
it ' s an amazing performance , one of the best of the year , with bale truly making you believe in this over - the - top character .
por alguns instantes , o filme parece ter algo relevante a dizer sobre a desumanização provocada pela guerra ou o niilismo de uma geração entediada e descrente , mas constatamos que quer apenas chocar , desperdiçando as ótimas atuações de bale e rodriguez .
this film just didn ' t capture me , but it might be a hit for you , a out of control ex gulf war veteran returns home to find a job in law enforcement and he just can ' t control his anger . only worth 2 1 / 2 stars from me .
it was quite a good film , it takes a while to really get into but when christian bale ' s character starts to lose the plot you become a little more intrigued with the film . all in all , it was an average film .
jim , knock it off . son , i ' ve been doing polygraph examinations since you were swimming in your daddy ' s balls , so i know all the tricks

that loathsome menace to society is jim davis , about whom we are told little beyond the facts that he was an army ranger ( whether in the persian gulf , afghanistan or iraq remains unspecified ) and left the service suffering from post - traumatic stress . jim is as intense a character as patrick bateman , mr . bale’s yuppie serial killer in “american psycho , ” and trevor resnik , the cadaverous insomniac from “the machinist , ” for which the actor lost 60 pounds .
whether stocky or emaciated , mr . bale has the look of a man staring into the abyss : think of the young oliver north crossed with the anthony perkins of “psycho . ” the deep - set eyes in his handsome face are weirdly close together and their expression strangely opaque , as though all he sees are dead people .
jim is first seen awakening from a nightmare in the arms of his doting , all - forgiving mexican sweetheart , marta ( tammy trull ) . but his hopes of bringing her to the united states and marrying her are shattered when his application to join the los angeles police department is rejected . he goes into an immediate tailspin , dragging his best friend , mike alvarez ( freddy rodriguez ) with him .
mike is a downscale variation of federico diaz , mr . rodriguez’s character in the hbo series “six feet under . ” wearing a mustache and casting oily sidelong glances , he plays out the same internal battle between macho adolescent and devoted husband that tears at federico . his shaky marriage to sylvia ( eva longoria ) , a lawyer he put through school while working as a telemarketer , is severely strained by his lengthening unemployment and his reluctance to look for work . as he follows jim on his downward spiral , he deceives sylvia by having jim and other friends impersonate potential employers on his home answering machine .
jim’s despair over his rejection from the l . a . p . d . lifts when the department of homeland security calls , and the movie suggests an ugly jockeying for manpower among local and federal agencies . jim knows how to play the obsequious straight arrow when required , and he makes a good impression until he fails both his drug and polygraph tests . he is offered a job nonetheless , but it is in colombia fighting the drug war and would prevent him from marrying marta . mike unexpectedly lucks out with a job interview with an old acquaintance .
when jim insists they celebrate in a final spree to mexico , mike dutifully tears himself away from his disgusted wife , and off they go . jim’s psychosis kicks in during a party at marta’s shack , and he has the first of several breaks that the rudimentary cinematography portrays in garish , wobbly multiple exposures .
written and directed by david ayer ; director of photography , steve mason ; edited by conrad buff ; music by graeme revell ; production designer , devorah herbert ; produced by mr . ayer and andrea sperling ; released by metro - goldwyn - mayer . running time : 119 minutes .
with : christian bale ( jim davis ) , freddy rodriguez ( mike alvarez ) , eva longoria ( sylvia ) , terry crews ( darrel ) , chaka forman ( toussant ) and tammy trull ( marta ) .
with the headline : when buddy ( psychotic ) meets buddy ( weakling ) .

they have some very funny beavis and butthead dialogue , and the stupendously built christian bale is very convincing as the jaw - clenchingly sociopathic jim . his sheer bulk reminded me of martin amis ' s remark about how being that big must be like being permanently armed - which jim is anyway . but things turn very dark when he is headhunted to join the department of homeland security .
for the first hour or so , the movie swings confidently between waster comedy and icy acts of horrific random violence , though it ' s at its best when nothing much is happening other than mike and jim unproductively hanging out and dropping in on one of their innumerable friends and semi - criminal contacts . the running gag is that some of these have to be prevailed upon to leave a message on sylvia ' s answering machine , pretending to be from a company impressed by mike ' s cv - a scam that , inevitably , ends in disaster .

amsterdam — a dutch justice ministry employee who was suspended and threatened with termination for saying that zionists invented the islamic state terrorist group can sue for damages , a judge ruled .
yasmina haifi , a former senior cybersecurity specialist , was “too harshly punished” for making a statement that is protected by freedom of speech , according to a ruling last week by a magistrate in the hague .
the decision came three years after haifi was suspended from her national cyber security center post for writing on twitter that “isis has nothing to do with islam . it’s part of a plan by zionists who are deliberately trying to blacken islam’s name . ”
she was then readmitted as a ministry employee in a different position and warned she would be fired if she continued to express herself in a manner deemed extremist .
in a lawsuit against the ministry for abusing her rights as an employee , haifi said the probation made her feel “muzzled” and that she had no prospects for advancement at the ministry , nrc handelsblad reported .
the judge , ruling that haifi may take her case to a labor court , said a written reprimand would have sufficed , according to nrc . the ruling also stated that haifi , who removed the message from twitter soon after she posted it , “received much negative publicity” because “opinion shapers , media and columnists jumped on the issue . ”
last year , haifi complained to the college for human rights , a government watchdog , that she was singled out for disciplinary action because of her origins , which are muslim .
a petition calling for her dismissal from the ministry titled “say no to anti - semitism in dutch politics” received 1 , 322 signatures .
haifi has denied accusations in the media that her remark was anti - semitic , insisting that she merely had expressed her views on the “supporters of an ideology . ”
i got over my blind allegiance , and now stick by israel ' s side , through thick and thin .

although visiting hours is more of a thriller than an actual horror film , it does not have one thing in common with the canadian slasher films of the early 1980s - - visiting hours does not use it ' s mad killer plot to espouse an opinion on morality . this film easily could have degenerated to an attack on feminism by having deborah killed for her beliefs , or conversely it could have used feminism to triumph over colt ' s misogynist rage . while it could easily be argued that visiting hours is a pro - feminist film , it does not spoon feed us an easy answer . feminism is simply used to flesh out the characters , and to give colt a reason to go over the edge .

maybe colt needs to be more goal - oriented , because he is fairly ineffectual as far as psycho killers go . colt is quite good at almost killing people , though . if you want someone nearly murdered , colt is definitely the person to call . still , what he lacks for in productivity , he makes up in effort . after more than five failed murders , not once does he give up . unfortunately for the viewer , watching colt fail again and again does not make for a very thrilling thriller . visiting hours can be a bit frustrating in this way , since the 90 + minute running time is quite obviously padded with colt ' s multiple attempted murders . perhaps this film would have worked better as a television episode than a full length movie .
the reading rooms encourage family literacy by providing a pleasant and comfortable setting for both child and incarcerated parent . each room is stocked with a wide variety of children’s books and has an inmate narrator who reads to the visiting children twice a day . the role of the inmate narrator is to read picture books to the children in much the same manner that children’s hour would be done at a public library . a variety of arts and craft supplies for the children are also available in most of the rooms . many of the supplies and books are donated by employees and service organizations .
opportunities for visitation unless there are substantial reasons for withholding such privileges . inmates in rh for pre - hearing detention or investigation shall have the same access to visitation as general population inmates unless security or safety considerations dictate otherwise . inmates in rh as a result of an rib disposition , smp disposition , or security increase shall be limited to one ( 1 ) visit per visitor per month , during week days , with a two ( 2 ) hour limit . inmates in erh shall have their visiting privileges assigned according to drc policy 53 - cls - 04 , extended restrictive housing ( erh ) .
a smart movie that also features a commentary on feminism and bigotry . it ' s dark and gritty , more along the lines of maniac than halloween . it ' s pretty sleazy , but it ' s still an entertaining roller coaster . i ' d love to see reactions to this in the theater . i have never jumped so much in a slasher film . the scares are about as effective as they get . they are delivered with such ferocity . typically , slashers feature a teen cast , but this is another aspect where visting hours tries to break the mold . the lead is middle aged deborah ( lee grant ) . somehow , it never works against it . i found this refreshing and interesting . michael ironside ' s portrayal of the killer is terrifying . even william shatner comes in as a thankless role . the scares are of an amazing frequency and effectiveness . for this reason alone , i ' d recommend the film ! for fans of thrillers , slashers , or anything scary .

the tomatometer score — based on the opinions of hundreds of film and television critics — is a trusted measurement of critical recommendation for millions of fans . it represents the percentage of professional critic reviews that are positive for a given film or television show .
movies and tv shows are certified fresh with a steady tomatometer of 75 % or higher after a set amount of reviews ( 80 for wide - release movies , 40 for limited - release movies , 20 for tv shows ) , including 5 reviews from top critics .
a crazed , women - hating killer ( michael ironside ) rapes and brutalizes journalist deborah ballin ( lee grant ) . when he discovers that his attack didn ' t kill deborah , he comes to the hospital to finish what he started .
the fact that the film is not tacky in appearance , and is energetically acted , only makes it more depressing .
for the most part , this is a routine slasher flick , although director jean claude lord does display some occasional innovation in his shot selections .
even if the film is a washout , it ' s still massively intriguing to see the filmmakers and actors grapple with it .
this mindless slasher movie borrows unashamedly from better pictures like peeping tom and psycho .
ironside traz grande intensidade para um personagem que merecia um filme melhor . já grant e shatner , no piloto automático , se perdem em um filme canalha que se entrega à apologia da ' justiça com as próprias mãos ' .
clumsily directed , painfully paced , and all but entirely lacking in anything even remotely resembling atmosphere , dread , or simple ol ' scariness .
one of the better slasher films of the early ' 80s thanks to michael ironside ' s menacing performance as the killer .
a surprisingly satisfying 80 ' s slasher featuring big stars . the storyline was pretty average but the good acting made up for the flaws . there are many plot holes left unanswered , but i was really glad that it didn ' t feature stupid teenagers and doesn ' t drag the film on for no reasons , instead , straight to the chase . it ' s one of the few gems from the 80 ' s that will keep you jumpy for the rest of the day .
an average horror movie , predictable , and pretty boring for the majority of the film .

1982 , starring michael ironside , lee grant , linda purl , william shatner , harvey atkin , helen hughes . directed by jean - claude lord .
quebec ' s jean - claude lord has had a long career as a director , including such francophone classics as bingo . today , lord is best known for the science fiction and action films he made in english under the tax shelter laws . among his more popular films are the vindicator and mindfield , starring maury chaykin and michael ironside respectively .
deborah is a tv news reporter with decidedly feminist views , which she uses to blast the guests on her show . shatner is her producer , who is concerned that someone may try to attack her because of her opinions . and it turns out he ' s right , because when she gets home that night , she finds colt ( ironside ) waiting in her shower to kill her . having michael ironside waiting for you is scary enough , but even worse , he ' s wearing deborah ' s clothes , jewelry and make - up . he brutally attacks her , but she manages to fight back and get away from him . badly wounded , she is taken to the city hospital .
dejected , colt goes back to his bachelor apartment where we learn a little about him . a loner who delights in writing angry
kill ' em all
letters to newspapers ( he even has them framed throughout his apartment ) , the darker side of colt is revealed in flashbacks of his father abusing both him and his mother . perhaps that ' s why colt lines his closet with his amateur photography project pictures of women in the final throes of death . on hearing that deborah has been admitted to the hospital , he pastes a
flower delivery
sign to his van and goes in to finish the job .
at the hospital , deborah is being cared for by sheila , a sympathetic nurse and single mom trying to make a go of it in this work - a - day world . sneaking by the nurse ' s station , colt arrives in deborah ' s room only to find that she has been moved to another room . not one to waste a good room sneaking , he cuts the airhose of deborah ' s roommate , an elderly woman , and snaps a few pictures as she struggles for her life . when sheila discovers what colt has done , and realizes who he was really after , she calls the police . colt escapes , but vows revenge on the meddling nurse as well .
with his record at an astounding 0 for 3 on killing deborah , colt decides to turn his attention to that meddling nurse . breaking into sheila ' s house , he calls her at the hospital to play the voice of her daughter ' s doll over the phone . mortified , sheila rushes home and gathers her daughter and the babysitter in a locked room before facing her attacker . colt stabs her and starts snapping pictures . hearing sheila ' s daughter , he gets distracted from the task at hand and goes after her , but intent on keeping his . 000 record intact , he just goes home instead . like deborah , sheila is rescued , and taken to the hospital to recover . at his apartment , colt smashes a beer bottle and rolls his arm in the glass shards until it is all nice and bloody . then , he calls the ambulance himself . admitted as a patient , colt once again tries to kill both sheila and deborah by chasing them into the dimly lit basement . and , once again , he fails .

a slow - burning , perceptive chamber drama about sacrifice and betrayal , honesty and self - delusion . . . in caudle ' s worldview , self - interest trumps everything else , a conclusion that other playwrights , like neil labute , have reached with caustic cynicism or world - weary hopelessness . but caudle seems to be an inherent optimist , looking for even the slightest glimmer of hope or modicum of change in this tragic study of human foibles .
 john thomason , miami new times
' resonant . ' ' a study in hard - wired familial dysfunction . ' christine dolen , miami herald
immensely engaging . . . caudle examines the boundaries of love and acceptance , and the sometimes manipulative competition that filial love can create with the love of spouses… . caudle creates painfully real circumstances , as well as characters toward whom the audience feels genuine empathy . he also deftly captures the difficulty of placing limitations on love , when to tell the kind lie rather than the cruel truth , and the agony of wondering “what did i do wrong ? ”
