Kidskycom It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.

ThrillMessage There are better movies of two hours length. I loved the actress'performance.

Michael_Elliott Bedhead (1991) *** 1/2 (out of 4)This short film from Robert Rodriguez shows exactly what you can do with very little money but a lot of imagination. The story is about a little girl who is constantly being abused by her jerk older brother. His bad bedhead hair is where the title comes from and after being knocked to the ground the sister grows some special powers, which she is going to use to teach the brother a lesson.I don't know what the budget of this film was but it's obviously very small yet the director manages to show off how much talent he has. I watch a lot of these shorts and more often than not they're good movies but ever so often you find one where you can watch and see that the director would have a future in cinema. This is such an example because the story itself is just so creative and it's done in such a fashion that you can't help but smile at the revenge and also be impressed with the technical quality of the production. There's some terrific editing and some great camera-work, two things that would become a staple for the director in future years.

Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) It's 1991, Robert Rodriguez is in his mid-20s and casts a whole bunch of his siblings for his very first movie, a nine-minute short film on a normal brother-sister relationship which takes a turn for the supernatural. It's in black and white just like the majority of his trademark film Sin City roughly 15 years later. When two siblings fight outside the house, the girl falls hard and awakes realizing something happened with her head when her brain hit the ground and all of a sudden she's able to move things with the power of her mind. She uses the newly-acquired ability to go full rampage on her brother and exact her revenge. However, in doing so, she falls again shortly after and may have lost her power again? Or has she?Bedhead is a decent, occasionally funny effort that doesn't really hold a candle to much of what Rodriguez has done afterward though. Actually, I think it's a pretty nice watch for children even, maybe more than for adult, who may find the eating of a cockroach, the girl constantly flying through the air etc. funnier than people our age group. Recommended to Rodriguez completionists, otherwise you can give this one a pass.

Marshio The only place you're likely to see this is on the El Mariachi/Desperado DVD. You see, its a short black-and-white movie made by Robert Rodriguez - yes him!Bedhead is just a bit of fun. The child actors are his siblings, and he just makes them play around to the basic plot while he films with his usual supercool camera angles and shots.Nothing much, just a cool piece of entertainment. Its just the perfect length of time to watch - any longer and it would have been sh*te.

GroovBird Actually a simple, funny, and real low budget "try out" movie, probably his debut as well. The whole thing is in black and white, and it's so low budget he uses his own son and daughter for actor an actress.And they both can act as well!I saw the whole thing (doesn't take more than 30 minutes) on a laserdisc of El Mariachi.
