User review:

This film is fantastic. It has it all. A crazy child, a badly-dressed school teacher and gratuitous chuck taylor footage.

From the very beginning I knew I’d struck gold with this gem. Marc Marut is amazing as the looney-tune Johnny and the scene where he says, ‘Bow wow’ before bashing a dog to death is truly horrific.

Well done Marc! You are a great actor – don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.
