Meet Peltzer Arbuckle, a bullied office employee, humiliated by his megalomaniac boss, teasing colleagues and cheating partner. Stuck in his mundane, nightmarish reality, once news about an embarrassing sexual accident circulates the workplace, Peltzer decides to put up with his misery no more, and conjures up his childhood imaginary friend Ronnie who manipulates him to exact gruesome revenge on his tormenting co-workers. As the body count rises, Peltzer must either run away from his past or take control of his future, battling between sanity and madness in a twisted tale of infidelity, revenge and snapped banjo strings.

My Bloody Banjo Audience Reviews

Protraph Lack of good storyline.
CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
Michael Ledo Peltzer Arbuckle (James Hamer-Morton) is viciously bullied by his work mates and his shrewish girl friend (Dani Thompson) who is also sleeping with his boss (Vito Trigo). After Peltzer has an accident where "I think something snapped" his evil imaginary childhood friend Ronnie (Damian Morter) appears in order to avenge Peltzer and to let the audience know Botox is bad.Lloyd Kaufman has a cameo as a doctor, which should clue you in to the nature of the film. It is like a British Troma production with only a fraction of the gore, which is not to say it doesn't have gore. This is a "not for everyone" cult-like production. More humor than horror.Guide: F-word, sex. No nudity.
Brian Donnelly Life's problems don't always provide us with an answer: "Hello Ronnie!"I found My Bloody Banjo funny in all the right places (and some wrong! Haha.) And felt it drew from shows that focus on flippant humour; whilst putting a dark slant on everything.Some might have found the example antagonists extreme, but I feel characters like Stiles (Yuppie..? Bateman?) are definitely among us.
jamesmullinger-1 This film is a thing of beauty. I assume it was shot on a low budget but it doesn't look it. It may not be for everyone but I grew up on Troma films and continue to love them to this day. Watching Banjo felt like when I watched The Toxic Avenger and Class Of Nuke Em High for the first time twenty years ago. Brilliantly, inventively gory, hilariously funny, surprisingly emotive (at least one death will break your heart), often highly relevant in a social context (bullying) and overall a blisteringly entertaining 80 minutes. If you like Troma films or movies like Shaun Of The Dead, you will love this. I have watched it twice in 24 hours and can't wait to see it again. Director Liam Regan is clearly something of a genius and one to watch in a big way.
noir guy Liam Regan's debut film - which screened to a highly appreciative audience at Frightfest 2015 - is a love letter to Troma and the early films of Frank Henenlotter. A low-budget exercise in adoration that often plumbs the depths of bad taste to amusing effect, it's an energetic and gleeful tale that also often reveals a surprising sense of self-discipline and maturity for a first effort. This is clearly a filmmaker whose love for the genre and his film shines through and should hopefully be the start of a promising career. Oh, and if you don't know what the title refers to - or what the film is about - I'm not going to tell you; apart from the fact that the film is about a worm that turns. And what happens to one particular 'worm' made me cross my legs - and may have the same effect on many other male viewers! British exploitation cinema is clearly alive and well and, for that, many thanks Liam Regan!
