Dark Comedy

Warning: Spoilers
I saw Suicide for Beginners, starring Wil Daniels-13 Days, Mile Marker Seven; Sara Tomko-Resident Alien_tv, Once Upon a Time_tv; Nate Panning-Well Wishes, Piranha 3 DD; Julia Lehman-Narcos:Mexico_tv, The Burning Dead and Sid Haig-The Devil's Rejects, Diamonds Are Forever.

This is a dark comedy about suicide and murder. Wil plays a man contemplating taking his own life because of his girlfriend, Sara. You see, she cheated on him. Wil starts fantasizing about different ways to do himself in but then he decides to kidnap Sara and bring her to his basement garage as an audience. He ties her up, of course, so that he has a captive audience but then Nate-the pizza guy-shows up and things get more complicated. Nate leaves but makes the mistake of telling his girlfriend Julia about Wil and she wants to bake Wil a cake. Nate and Julia end up getting tied up and seated in the garage, too. Sid in his final movie appearance-he died in 2019-plays Sara's landlord that comes looking for Sara and.... well, the garage starts getting fuller. Things get bloodier when nosy neighbors enter the picture and Corey Feldman has a short but funny cameo as one of them.

It's not rated-NR-but it contains bloody violence and language and has a running time of 1 hour & 34 minutes.

I enjoyed it and would buy it on DVD.
