I came across this movie when arrow announced a bluray treatment would be making its way into the world but upon the announcement the sheer barrage of negative comments was like nothing I had seen before. Fast forward to the release of the movie on bluray ,Arrow also added the film to its online channel on amazon prime. So I had a 7 day free trial for arrow so why not check out to see what all the fuss is about..... This film is cheap but not cheap in a good or arty way just cheap in a nasty poorly filmed way. I lasted a mere 25 minutes of this atrocity and that was 24 minutes to much. So instead I will review a female * in the movie and her breasts as that was at least something interesting I saw i this movie. The main character goes home with a * who strips to her sexy underwear and removes top half to show perky little boobies and then it cuts to next scene. Not great * but least was something lol. So avoid this movie at all costs as its rotten and the people who made it should be ashamed of themselves. A Uwe Boll movie is citizen kane compared to this rubbish. I did actually read a story in regard to this movie that when it was premiered in the Scala cinema in London that the director had to be escorted out secretly as it was getting booed,heckled and they feared for his safety

Like the guy who posted the first comment I bought this film for only 1GBP, I knew the film was going to be bad. I hoped that it would be in the so bad it's good category. It's so much more than that, it's appalling, it's the pits, it is without doubt the worst film I've ever seen, I had to watch it in five sittings. It's 89 minutes of the hoariest clichés and cod psychology. It has the worst cast, the worst sets, the cheapest and nastiest special effects. I could go on but I don't want to over egg the pudding ! I've not seen every film ever made so I'm not qualified to call it the worst film ever made but I can't imagine that any other film could be worse than this. Like the guy who made the first post, I too like bad films. If 'The Producers' (you know, Zero Mostel & Gene Wilder) had picked this script, it would have totally spoilt that movie for their theatre audience would have walked out and never come back. It's a howler, watch it with a companion because you'll be begging them to kill you before the film is halfway through. Druggies save yourself some money, you don't need any mind altering drugs, just watch this film it will be a trip. If finding the worst film ever is you're Holy Grail, find this, buy it, take it back to your Camelot and stick it in ye olde DVD player, watch it and then write to thank me for putting you on to this. I will treasure this film for ever. Thank you Richard Driscoll !!!! PS, does anyone know if any of the cast or crew ever worked again, apart from in McDonalds that is ? PPS, if you only see one bad film before you die, make sure it's this one.

Sam Coex (Steve Munroe) is a stand-up comedian who just can't get a break. After a rival comedian is murdered in what must be the only nightclub in town, Sam takes his place and goes on a prostitute and * killing binge. The Comic has lofty ambitions, but it is hampered by a small budget and bad acting. Steve Munroe lacks charisma in the lead role and his Christmas cracker jokes are poorly delivered. In an odd design choice he also sports dyed, day-glo orange hair like a clown wig. Any commentary about a dystopian society are hampered by an insipid script. This is not A Clockwork Orange or 1984 level of atmosphere. It's bizarre. The brutal guards look like weedy and people get about in horse and carriage for unknown reasons. For exploitation and horror fans there are some surprisingly nasty murder scenes with a fair amount of blood. Also a few long sex scenes. This film has gone onto gain a bit of a cult status due to VHS tapes doing the rounds in the 90s and screenings at horror film festivals. It's a mediocre at best film and one wonders what the intended vision was had the budget been into the millions. The Blu-ray from Arrow has a sharp print, good sound and English subtitles.

Very, very bad. This is the first time I took the time to share a screenshot of a scene with friends as I wouldn't believe the level of mediocrity I was witnessing. And this was at 13 min in the movie!!! At least, Plan 9 and The Room are entertaining to some level. This is like watching a slow motion video of toilet unclogging in close-up, with similar feelings involved. Captivating, but in a very very bad way....

There is very little doubt in my ruinous, B-Movie barbecued mind that maverick independent film-maker Richard Driscoll's hyperbolically weird 'The Comic' remains one of the more garishly eccentric genre films Britain produced in the 80s. While I actively celebrate the unbridled lunacy of the director's singularly skewed vision, as his idiosyncratically downbeat, pan-dimensional narrative about a perplexingly humourless comic's murderous rise to fame is not readily categorized! If Andy Milligan had directed a transfixingly ponderous, visibly penurious, bathos-laden long form Fields of The Nephilim video, one crudely adorned in faux Dickensian squalor, its luridly blue-gelled dystopian palate, dismal dialogue and cheapjack Orwellian rhetoric transform 'The Comic' into a monolithically mental micro-genre unto itself, and bravura bad actor Steve Monroe's hysterically unfiltered, unconventionally unsubtle, disturbingly childlike 'performance' as the hateful, orange-haired harlequin Sam Coex is mesmerizing to behold! 'The Comic' is, perhaps, not an altogether amenable watch for B-Movie newbies, since its manifest absurdity, turgid prose and the inventively contrarian acting choices of Steve Monroe actively guarantees that none of your more delicate sensibilities remain unmolested! Vividly expressing all the innate humour of a cold war Thatcherite Britain, the curiously caustic cinematic charms of Richard Driscoll's outlandish, fabulously off-beat, pathologically strange phantasmagoria are grimly revivified on this brand-new HD restoration of 'The Comic' for the rarefied edification of hardcore bad movie masochists and scurrilous schlock collectors alike! At many points this majestically melon-twisting misshape feels like the most vexing, dayglow delirious, THC-spawned fever-dream made celluloid flesh, and for that especially edifying, reality corrupting reason alone, I have a grudging admiration for its confounding uniqueness! 'The Comic's uniquely melon-twisting dystopia is a monolithically mental micro-genre unto itself!' - Weirdlingwolf / Dirty Kunst Video.

I think I rather would hang out with Joe Pesci (no pun intended) - also Joe Pesci is the actor obviously and not the character from Goodfellas, so there is that to consider, if you catch my drift? That aside, this odd movie is ... well hard to describe to say the least. A lot of things seem to boil down to chance and fortune (or misfortune depending on your own view and moral compass). When the budget went ... well extinct, they found a way to carry on. So maybe you are able to cut this some slack - maybe weird and odd is right up your alley. A lot of things you can take into account. Tough to watch for sure - suspend your disbelief and ... it might just work out for you. Way better than for the Comic ... which one you ask? Well that is a good question ... also be careful what you wish for. And what you hackle for ... which makes this very reletable at the beginning at least.

This movie feels like it belongs to no set time and space. I can freely admit that it's not good, but also that I'm fascinated by it. If asked to describe it in ten words or less, I'd say, "Imagine if Cafe Flesh was about comedy and not good." It's set in a fascist police set of the future, but shot on the sets of Freddie Francis' The Doctor and the Devils. Nobody bothered to clean those sets, so they are covered with straw. This movie is to straw as Conquest is to fog. Sam Coex (Steve Munroe) is a stand-up comedian who can't get booked, so he kills - not like you kill on stage - his rival Joey Myers, buries him in his garden and takes over his career, becoming a big success. He starts sleeping with * named Ann all while the zombified Joey starts to haunt him An American Werewolf in London-style. You have to wonder what the Welsh miners and doctors whose hard-earned money went to funding this thought when they saw the final result. As for its writer and director, Richard Driscoll, he was found guilty of a $2.3 million tax fraud over the invoices for his movie Eldorado, which starred Daryl Hannah, Caroline Munro, Brigitte Nielsen, Peter O'Toole, Rik Mayall, David Carradine, Jeff Fahey, Steve Guttenberg and Michael Madsen. He served three years in jail for the crime. Some would say his worst offenses would be the films that he makes, which are Bruno Mattei-esque jabs at recreating other films like Kannibal (Silence of the Lambs) and at least two movies with a title close to Grindhouse. Man, now I have a whole new thing to be obsessed about and yet, I know in my heart that the films of Driscoll are not in any way good. Such is how it goes. Also, the lovemaking scenes in this movie disturbed me and I grew up watching the Dark Brothers films, so just imagine the things that I have seen.

When I picked up a copy of The Comic at a truck stop for $1, I expected a bad movie. But I never expected something this horrible. I thought it would be a trashy horror film with a comedian who murders people while telling lame jokes. The box said "He's a real cut-up!", suggesting such a movie. But instead of a campy horror film, we get a confusing, boring and pretentious foreign film that doesn't make the least bit of sense. It was a half-hour into the movie that I realized that it was in a post-apocolyptic future, and after that, it kept on jumping back and forth between flash-back and dream sequence, that I didn't know what in the blue hell was happening. I think the movie makers tried to put a bunch of symbolizm and meaning into many of scenes, but in a crappy film like this, it doesn't really matter at all. I almost fell asleep during this movie, and I love bad movies. Unless you like sitting through three hours of hellish tedium, don't watch The Comic.
