BD Review: ‘Bad Behaviour’ is Quite Simply…Bad
Starring Wolf Creek psycho John Jarratt, David Harley caught a screening of Joseph Stephen Sims’s British Bad Behaviour, which begins when a couple encounter their fierce predator Voyte Parker, a cop confronts his son’s murderer, and a man finds his wife is cheating on him.
“Sims weaves the movie through some abstract imagery, while tinkering with acts of murder and mayhem, with beheadings, gouged eyes, and sprays of bloody vomit meant to snap the picture awake. The filmmaker certainly has a way with gore zone goodies, but the brutality is hopelessly ephemeral, killing any opportunity for ‘Bad Behaviour’ to create some sustained excitement in middle of all the tedious conversations.”

Chris Columbus (Gremlins – writer, Home Alone – director) is headed back into the director’s chair for Thursday Murder Club, Amblin’s upcoming feature film adaptation of the same-titled novel written by Richard Osman. Variety first reported the news this morning.
It’s not a horror movie, mind you, but rather a star-studded murder-mystery. Think Rian Johnson’s Knives Out… only this particular murder-mystery is set in a retirement community!
Variety details, “The book, released in 2020, tells the story of four septuagenarian friends who live in a retirement community and solve cold cases for fun. When a shady property developer is found dead, the four find themselves in the middle of their first live crime.”
Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan and Ben Kingsley are “being eyed” to lead the cast!
Richard Osman’s 2020 novel was such a hit that it launched a franchise. Follow-up The Man Who Died Twice followed in 2021, with The Bullet That Missed coming along in 2022. And then there was The Last Devil to Die in 2023, with a fifth book in the series expected in 2025.
