Manipulator

"A tripped-out vision of insanity featuring a tour de farce performance by Mickey Rooney. It's also an amazing achievement, which quickly destroys any preconceptions you might walk in with ... After 90 minutes of its dizzying pace, you feel like you're on the verge of madness too. Overbearing, pretentious and brilliant, this is one film that bears repeat viewing." -- Steve Puchalski, Shock Cinema

The legendary Mickey Rooney gives one of his most shocking, shattering performances as B.J. Lang, a deluded Hollywood has-been obsessed with making his greatest and final masterpiece. In an abandoned studio warehouse filled with dusty, decaying props, he holds hostage a woman he calls "Carlotta," intending her to play Roxanne to his Cyrano de Bergerac. Terrorizing and tormenting Carlotta, captor and captive are spiraling downward into a surreal, hallucinatory madness.
