The cable guy. Scary Jim Carey is scary. And the ending was visionary.
I feel this way about 23 as well. Jim Carey as a normal guy who's absolutely losing it just hits different.
I blame the marketing for that movie not doing well. People went expecting a "wacky Jim Carrey flick" and what they got was a surreal and frightening thriller.
Eddie Murphy's "Holy Man" suffers that bad marketing issue as well. They plastered so many ads making it out to be a loony Eddie Murphy film and the movie itself is more of an uplifting drama about believing in one's self and not seeking external validation, with a few gags in it making fun of television shopping networks and the stupid shit people buy from them cause yeah, it's Eddie Murphy of course they're gonna have fun with it. But that's only like 1/3rd of the film.
