Freaky Farley (2007)
weird low-budget fun
Freaky Farley is one of those love-it or hate-it movies. If you get the humor and are willing to let go of hyper-critical mode, then you should have some fun with it. If you expect a normal, Hollywood movie, then there's a good chance you won't like it.
The main character is the titular "Freaky Farley"... a local weirdo (more of a loner, I guess, than weird) who suffers at the hand of a domineering father. He's sort of stuck in a rut, until he isn't (no spoilers here, you'll just have to see for yourself).
My roommate didn't get it, but I totally did. Personally, I just think you have to have an open mind. And don't expect much horror...though the autumn, New England, Halloween-time feel is nice; this movie is a comedy.
I just sort of fell for the weird characters, and it's a pretty fast movie, with a not-dragged out ending.
Enjoy!

Funny and unique!
OK, I know this is low-budget, but I still had a really good time with it. Here's the thing: it's low-budget and doesn't pretend to be high budget. Just a fun time...a movie that's hard to compare to others, and that's good! The girls (characters of Melinda and Jenny) were cute and the lead actor Matt Farley was funny in throw-himself-into-the-character way.
It has a mystery and romantic entanglements, but the main reason to watch is the FEEL. It's not all about plot all the time...the feel can be something great in a movie, as it is in this one.
Got it on netflix on a whim and it made me happy! It's fast and fun.
