Synopsis

Bad Boy Bubby is just that: a bad boy. So bad, in fact, that his mother has kept him locked in their house for his entire thirty years, convincing him that the air outside is poisonous. After a visit from his estranged father, circumstances force Bubby into the waiting world, a place which is just as unusual to him as he is to the world.

gavin6942 Bubby (Nicholas Hope) has spent thirty years trapped in the same small room, tricked by his mother. One day, he manages to escape, and, deranged and naive in equal measures, his adventure into modern life begins.As someone who likes strange and unusual films, I have to say this is among the most strange and unusual. For those who can be offended, there is plenty to be offended by here. Just in the first few minutes there is animal cruelty, full frontal male nudity and incest. So, yeah, this is not for everyone.And as the film goes on, it gets... well, not sure what it gets. Some have called this the Australian "Forrest Gump", which is not really accurate, but in some ways very accurate. Bubby is not so much stupid as just not aware of the world, and yet he seems to successfully manage it...
Stephanie Greenhill Wow! I wasn't expecting this movie to be so good, there are random scenes where you would never think would happen. I tend to get bored with a lot of movies but this film is far from boring, I cant stop thinking about the whole film and i will watch it again. It is disturbing at the start but the world isn't full of happiness, abuse happens all the time. When you get over the first 20 minutes then it ends up hilarious. I can't give anything away but just watch it, you won't regret it. It would offend people, especially christians and cat lovers but that's the beauty of it. Nothing is sugarcoated in this film and thats what i love about it. Jesus is a c***! ☺
Luca Capezio I never wrote something about a movie on IMDb cause I never felt the need to do so, but that movie was so incredible that I felt the urge to write something and let it out my thoughts that this film impressed in my mind.I don't want to spoil nothing, I'm just saying that i didn't knew nothing about that movie, I hated it the first 15-20mins but then I followed the unbelievable journey that unfolded before my eyes, with such epic moments, funny moments, sad moments, deep moments, I didn't know what to expect, a movie that grow so big inside you, and at the end the unexpectable happened too, I was so moved that I cried in liberation and ecstasy as the end is the culmination of all those feelings.The direction, the music, the acting are superb too, don't miss the chance to watch that movie, look behind the appearance and you'll find a gem.
chris-w-king I watched this knowing it was a good cult film, and nothing else about it, and that was one of my better decisions of recent years. Bad Boy Bubby is tense, funny, poignant, disturbing, cat hating amazingness. I was completely absorbed from the opening shot. I felt i was watching a new serial killer movie as the opening half hour played, but this film couldn't go anymore in another direction. To see Bubby chase children shouting little people at them till removed from a store, or to try to force feed pizza to a dead cat tickles my funny bone in the right places, but the death of his parents actually made my mouth open in shock, and cinema offers few shocks now unless your having a night of frontieres, martyrs and a Serbian movie. I would not know how to class this film genre wise, or who quite to show it to, as it has aspects of horror, isolation, comedy, a documentary directed style and to compare how the film opens with incest and post-apocalypse to how it ends is poles apart. If you like cult cinema, disturbing horror or kooky comedy give this a shot, it cannot disappoint :)
