DIABOLICAL: Evil Schemes Done Better
TV & Film:Film Reviews
“I see myself as a bit more fruity. I'm not a macho guy, wondering where my testicles have gone. I still know where they are”
The panel of peril pick up an excessively large ball of popcorn from a bowl on their kitchen table. They chisel off a portion-sized amount, and dive onto the couch to watch this week’s film Gentlemen Broncos (Jared Hess, 2009).
Benjamin Purvis (Michael Angarano) is a young writer with a dream of paying tribute to his late father by publishing his pulp sci-fi tome Yeast Lords. Attending a writer’s symposium, featuring a talk from his favourite author Ronald Chevalier (Jemaine Clement), should give him a leg up on the competition, but desperate people do desperate things. One desperate person in particular.

********PLOT SPOILER ALERT********
Little does Benjamin know that Chevalier is struggling with his latest novel, has his publisher ready to drop him, and he has zero qualms with plagiarising the (better) work of others. How can Benjamin prove the original work was his, and that Chevalier has simply added the suffixes ‘onius’, ‘ainous’, and ‘anous’ to his characters’ names? That would be telling.
What the actual flip did the panel make of this one? How the actual flip can they improve upon the villain’s dastardly scheme? And who the actual flip will be victorious in this week’s competition?
