The Scribbler (I) (2014)
5/10
surreal unreal
11 November 2022
Suki (Katie Cassidy) is being interviewed by Criminal Psychologist Jennifer Silk (Eliza Dushku) and Police Detective Moss (Michael Imperioli). She recounts the events at Juniper Tower, an apartment building and halfway house for released mental patients. She suffers from multiple personalities and using The Siamese Burn to burn out the extra personalities. She reconnects with Hogan (Garret Dillahunt) who is sleeping with almost every beautiful lady in the building. Soon, these girls are dying from apparent suicides.

This world is surreal to the point of unreal. It's intriguing and unique, but I can't get over the unrealism of the premise. Whether it's Suki or the craziness of the world, it does come off as messy story telling. Although all of it can be excused as a way to inhabit the madness of the characters' minds. I'm with this movie until it loses me somewhat around the middle. I would like to keep some of these ideas and make the rest cleaner.
