Night Vision
An aspiring writer from Kansas moves to 'the big city' to become a famous writer or something. Instead, he ends up in a "dive" apartment that's huge and only costs $60 week with a once a week turndown service. That's...a dream place for a LOT of people.
While searching for a job, our protagonist visits a video store and meets the 'rough around the edges' owner and she rents him a VCR and hands him a job app. She also berates people for renting porn from her video store...the store she owns and procures tapes for. Great business plan. On top of that she likes to smoke, drink beer, and chew gum...all at the same time.
Somehow, he ends up with a magic VCR that predicts the future....and it's also possessed by the devil or something. People start dying, cultists are looking for it, friends have existential crises...it's a whole thing...a VERY boring thing...But hey, his writing is getting better! Do you see the irony there?
This movie is great if you need sleep. It's so boring, it'll put you in a coma. There's nothing scary, the characters are flat-lining all of their dialog and the one sex scene was as interesting as watching milk curdle.
This movie is best watched while you're already asleep.
