Psychotherapist
Victoria (Suzanne Johnson) is really trying her best to change the
world for the better - but the problem is that none of her
patients listen to her advice. And it has come to a point where
they blame her for their shattered lives, bad relationships and
the like while at the same time asking for her reassurance that
they're on the right track while quite clearly they aren't. Thing
is, Victoria isn't exactly on the right track herself, she's
married to Benny (Tom Scorzone), who has the habit of beating her
and who doesn't even hide that he cheats on her anymore - heck, he
takes her money to go to prostitutes. So it's only a matter of
time until Victoria herself snaps, really - but fortunately she
does so in front of one of her patients, a wannabe witch (Laurel
Kornfeld), and they
make up a plan to invite all of Victoria's patients to a weekend
retreat, see to it that one of them, a reformed killer clown
(Kenny Ledee), has a relapse, and then just see how things develop
...
Despite Psycho-Therapy's dark theme, this is actually a
wickedly funny movie, thanks first and foremost to a really fun screenplay
that gets the most out of the situations the characters are thrown in
without milking them for cheap laughs, that presents the audience with a
group of very colourful characters in such a way that it makes Victoria
and her plight and even her solution relatable, that makes us cheer for
her in the ending against better judgment. And of course, a very solid
cast helps bring all of this to life rather beautifully. And while it
might be true that the film can't totally shake its low budget origins,
it's still well worth a watch!
