May's Mystery Movie

This movie is a weird, weird, weird one. Don't say we didn't warn ya! 

This month's theme: Hot-potato films. You know, those films that start out as one thing, but morph into something unrecognizable as rewrites pile up and directors are replaced during filming. 

Hints: A famous horror director was replaced while directing this movie. There are loads of recognizable actors in this film, one of whom might be more recognized for his voice than his physical appearance. The producers of this film decided they wanted to entirely change the plot of this movie, after the film was nearly complete. 

Content Warnings: Verbal and physical domestic violence. Later in the film there's a scene in a bar where a drunken man yells abuse at a woman he's in a relationship with. (There's also cops being trash throughout, but when are there not?) 

Mutual Aid Suggestion: Someone stole Involve MN's custom outdoor grill they used to cook for people street-side all over the metro. If you can donate to their gofundme, please do so they can get a replacement asap! Also share their campaign so it gets in front of the most people possible.
