Not So Guilty Pleasures | THE FANATIC (2019): John Travolta is Moose in A Fred Durst Film

John Travolta has worked with everybody from Brian De Palma to Robert Altman to Quentin Tarantino. Here he's in the hands of Fred Durst from Limp Bizkit. This is truly a movie that could only be made independently on a shoestring budget. Any more money or time and the final product would probably look a lot different. But thankfully, we have "The Fanatic" as is.
Travolta plays an autistic street performer named Moose who is desperate to meet his favorite actor Hunter Dunbar (Devon Sawa). That's all you need to know.
The Fanatic (2019)
Produced by VMI Worldwide
Directed by Fred Durst
Written by Dave Bekerman & Fred Durst
Starring John Travolta, Devon Sawa and Ana Golja

Fred Durst should've taken more criticism for this movie than Travolta.

[@hollywoodvulture]

I think Fred Durst knew what the movie was. John Travolta was the one going around singing its praises to an insane degree: Comparing Durst to Orson Welles and saying it's one of his favorite movies he's ever been in (remember, this guy starred in Pulp Fiction & Blow Out).

I agree though Durst should never be permitted within a 7 mile radius of a film set ever again. Travolta appears to be suffering from some sort of cognitive decline where delusions run rampant. He’s made some of the most insanely stupid films I’ve ever seen over the last 10 years and seems to have lost any ability to call a script bad.

No offense dude, since I used to do the same thing, but conflating people who don’t have any respect for order or decorum with anarchists is actually quite erroneous. Anarchy is not disorder or the pursuit thereof, it the belief that order would be far more consistent in a world where hierarchy isn’t based on compulsion and expropriation (the lifeblood of positive law nation states) but on strictly voluntary forms of cooperation, association and interchange. It’s actually what thrived in many ancient and comparably peaceful societies for thousands of years in Ireland, Scandinavia, Iceland, parts of China, Africa, India and for hundreds of years in colonial America and today in places like Charan in Mexico. Anomie is the better word. Anomie is the pursuit of a society without guidelines, imperatives and respect for the sacred. Just FYI.

Watch this movie? I think I’d prefer instead to have a debilitating aneurysm.

[@hollywoodvulture]

Hahahaha. Well, I can't argue with that.

It’s actually worth watching in order to understand how not to make a movie, write a character, perform on screen, edit, etc., etc.

Frat metal, yes that is the perfect description of that horrid band. Hated them from day 1.
