  • aaawww i really liked edger :(

  • Quick question...what happened to your other video, where you did the scene "I need to keep the wall wet." I Have looked high and low for that video because I loved it. Do you have it posted anywhere?

  • this is my favorite selection from JtHM and you people have...wrecked it. Through awkward timing and shitty annunciation...you guys have butchered it. Your adlibs are deplorable..."hence the cups"? "greeter from walmart"? The entire mood of the thing is supposed to be solemn but thanks to your cartoony sound effects, it mocks it.

  • @HallowsEveCelticBoy I liked it =P

  • i think you guys should've made an entire movie for Nny.

  • did you guys know that this moment in the comic that Johnny was supposed to learn that not all people are how you describe them. but in the end he said "Well that did nothing for me."

    sorry if i spoiled you...

    heh...

  • O_O thats not Nny O_O

  • I'm not sure what I would think if I walked in and saw this situation.

  • not the Walmart greeter!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • 74 people probably could have done better.

  • loved it (:

  • That was awesome

  • nicely done guys! =]

    bagels ftw =p

  • just got done reading the director's cut. SO FUCKIN' AWESOME! i luv this part.

  • fanmade project and I hope more arise because of this noble, yet somewhat disappointing attempt.

  • Nny is more of a know-it-all spitting out dramatic prose for no reason, something the series even started to make fun of over time.In the comic he does the same, but you really feel his sense of urgency and darkness, as well as a sense of mystery. The victim was off too. Instead of being a man almost desensitized by faith and trust to fear death, he seems more like he is making fun of Nny instead of respecting him and his views. It may seem now like I hate this, but I don't. This is great for a

  • Hey guys, don't be to harsh on this. It was an admirable try at a live action version of the opening of the second JTHM issue. I liked some of the shots and the atmoshpere was great, setting up a barron and gloomy underbelly, but the feel was off. JTHM is really as much a satirization of society as well as a gritty social analysis. Nny is a character tormented and tortured by people and feels some don't offer anything to the world. He is a mysterious, dark tormented and insane character. Here,

  • it looks like the actors were the guy Kyle Sullivan from 'the war at home' and kenny g. I didn't like this at all

  • lol i doubt five litres of blood could fit in those meager cups. and i know everyone has critiqued this to death, but i agree, the acting was a little... well ok i could tell you had to think really hard about your lines, they didn't come naturally. im not going to say anything about the hair; after all, you have to live with the hair afterwards until it grows back! But something i did like was that the person that played Nny was actually skinny enough for the character!

  • Nny was awful, but he looks abit like tim curry with the makeup, which by the way Nny DOES NOT WEAR!!!

  • Comment removed

  • @LulsParody

    Johnny does to wear makeup! His makeup runs sometimes when he cries.

    but he doesnt wear lipstick so i see your point

  • o.o well thats great but next time shave the back of your head like i half did :)

    but great impression of nny though but im still wondering why you didn't shave the back of your head..

  • it was meh. i've seen better and worse. johnny seemed a bit nasley to me and not psyco enough.

  • Well, You Coulda had a more interesting nny. His mentality is more child like, not so much constantly angry. and a really cool thing would've been to gel your hair in a cool way.

  • congrats for doing this successfully but, umm... it sorta sucked. the character in the contraption needed less of a humorous tone. and Nny well, he needed to be a little more woeful in a way. and cups... really?

  • LOVE IT!  lovely nny impression.

  • Come on Nnys not a prissy little .... Drago whats-his-face HES ... say the big word with me.....a M-A-N-I-A-C you know phsycotic twisted ...heheheheeee its like a health video from the 70s LOL at the I dont know part i shot milk outta my nose (btw your skin tones fine Nnys not pale :D)

  • @invaderpink ... but then again Nny is kinda hard to play what with him always ...shifting ...realitys .... you never really know whats going on in his little twisted mind :D

  • @PurdyWolf yeah and if the dude says anything speific, Nny would go crazy and randomly kill that dude, like he did in the directors cut.

  • Nny couldve been a little better....a little more hysterical, and dark and stuff....but pretty good altogether

  • haha pretty cool. i like this better than most of the ones i've seen so far. good job! :)

  • A tad overacting, not quite as erratic as Nny, but still well done =]

  • ep... i would think nny was more animated then this

  • actually nither heaven nor hell for johnny, but thats getting tenical

  • better this other one i saw so in all LOVED it i agree with billy make more

  • make more

  • |: Nnys more tan lol.

  • I didnt like the guy who played johnny

  • Augghh!! I love this!! And the cups. lmao I looove the cups. XP

  • this nny reminds me a lot of the joker from batman :D 5 stars

  • the one who plays nny i mean

  • is it me or does he sound alot like lanipator?

  • i always felt that the conversations would go by so much faster

  • I loved it! Very good!

    I love the Wal mart line! :P

  • Very good acting :)

  • lol "i need your blood, hence the cups" my favorite line!! and i loved Nny, he needs a hair cut tho, a small 1

  • O.O this is cool!!!! so cool!!!

  • LOVE IT!!!!

  • If the actor who played Nny got a haircut like the hair he had in the comics, he'd be absolutely perfect.

  • greeters from wal-mart lol

  • This Johnny reminds me of George Costanza for some reason.

    Edgar was adorable.

  • Wow. This is the best acting I've ever seen! Although, I think the Nny actor needs a haircut O_o

  • hahah omg i lost it when the HENCE THE CUPS was said.. me and my boyfriend are jthm freaks hahha

  • LOL!  well that did nothing for me...

  • lol the guy acting as nny reminded me of the joker from the dark night.

  • I'm not sure I like the idea of Nny having white make-up on. but it made me smile. Very well shot and very well acted.

  • lol, "hence the cups"

  • This was great!!

  • You call that A insane death device! Looks like you raided your dad's shed!

  • I think it looks pretty good, considering the obviously limited budget that they had to go with.

  • LOL! greeters from walmart! brillant! XD

  • i loved it

    thx for posting this vid C:

  • That was amazing! :o I usually hate fan-made videos, but this was very well acted out :)

  • awesome

  • that was so f*ckin cool!!!!!!!

  • Lol i remember that part!

  • eh

    I think Edgar seemed to scornful when he talked

    in the comic he was more polite and all that

    but oooh well

    I'm not complaining I liked it alot.

  • true dat! Nny's always kinda cheery and cuddly when he converses with his victims. haha!

    still neat li'l movie bit here. heehee!

  • lol

    i know it always seems weird to me

  • I always enjoy seeing what others create through their fanboyness.

    I always wanted to make a Johnny/Devi vid my boyfriend has a lovely collection of knives and swords. ;)

  • Very nicely done!

    My compliments.

  • I lyke the fact that the guy who plays Edgar sounds lyke Keanu Reeves <3

    *droolz*

    sry random fangrl moment

    but other than that yeah I give a thumbs up for good effort! <3

  • I LOVE YOU GUYS!!! 4/5 I never give a 5 so its pretty high grade concerning me

  • this was different ...but i would have rather not seen Johnny as a stale character with an Abercrombie and Fitch hair cut.

    Edgar was good though. great job...edgar

  • not to be insanely derogatory, but this was kinda bad. i mean, the set is great, maybe a bit bright but hey, gotta have light for a camera. and i loved edgar, but nny was kinda... idk, faked? his voice is really wooden, and he's entirely too sane. i understand stuff like budget and resources, but there could totally have been more horror in this. *hardgore fan*

  • okay scratch that, i fucking adored edgar. and in all honesty, i did love the last 30 seconds or so.

  • Where is the insanity?! Where is the blood curdling horror in this peice?! It's good for a lauhg but it just dosen't seem like jhonny at all.

  • idk but johnny was ok...just meh.Edgar was pretty damn good kinda like a more modern,in the sense of the word, version

  • nice censoring, and the cups were a nice touch. this has always been a popular scene to reenact, probably b/c of its simplicity of two characters and a long running dialogue. Of all of the reenactments of this scene, I can't help but wonder, why is Edgar always wearing a suit?

  • Interesting video...I'm still new to JTHM... but this is really well done and well filmed...though I'd be very VERY nervous if I were Edgar in this film... *shudder*

  • A Wal-Mart greeter.....the qualifications for that job must be breathing.....I went to a wal-mart one time....a woman rolled up in a wheelchair and said "Do you need a buggy?"....I looked at her and said "Yeah, hop up and get one for me, better yet I'll wheel you around and you hold the shit."....that was uncalled for.....

  • Hmm... Thanks for the negative points.

    I didn't like it because it seemed they were trying to hard.

  • this is cool...make more like these! :)

  • This is cool XD You guys got the set really good, but some of the words wrong, whatever. XD Nny's voice could have used more help though, it sounds too deep, ya know? Awesome job though! ^^ 5 stars

  • You messed up ALOT of the words. You really raelly fucked up the words. A comic book is half art and half writing. When you're translating that medium to film, you can't have the artwork, so it's VERY important that you get the dialouge down. Also, you really didn't capture Johnny. It was too...faked. You also kind of fucked up one of the more serious moments with the whole cup thing. JTHM has MANY funny moments, but this was a slightly more serious one.

  • meh...imagined Johnny to be...ya know semi-crazy...just my opinion.

    liked everything else though!

  • I think it's really good, you started off very well. But the guy who played JTHM, you can tell he's acting, He didn't really capture JTHM.

  • best jthm live action I've seen.

    liked it alot.

  • really well filmed. pretty good acting too

    Love JTHM!!

  • I totally dig what you guys tried to do, but nny doesnt have that hatefull personality, he is the more quiet type of guy. And you didnt quite catch the humor of this particular issue of nny but other wise still cool you guys did it

  • i enjoyed watching it but i think Nny would be a little quieter..a little more depressed. He'd speak with a sigh not with hate.

    I liked it though :)

  • nny isnt as full of rage as that....its more of a depressing less hope filled sigh than a ragful speach

  • I know people don't like it when other people say negative things about their stuff and that this was posted over two years ago, but, eh, I feel the need to at least say that I didn't really like it. Acting seemed too... harshly done. Didn't flow very well. :\

  • not at all how nny would be in fact i didnt even feel the urge to watch it all got to 1:32 including typing ty so much u FAIL

  • I don't think your acting was quite like johnny, but still liked it a lot

    good job, really

  • not bad. worth watching

  • Wow Johnny doesn't act like he has an ego, this is...ehh just wow...preachy...sick

  • amaazzinngg bravo =D

  • lol oh my god this is kewl.

    i like johnny's voice.

    something about his voice

    and edgar is so desperate to leave lolz

  • Yes, I'm commenting on this video again. But it's compliment. In my opinion this is the best, I mean best actor for Edgar. The other Edgar by deadboy1313666 was TOO high-strong.

    This my friend was dead on. Not only that, but Nny was awesome in this as well, I got over the hair. He's a good actor, the only major thing was he'd seemed a tad bit brooding towards Edgar. Yet in the comic he starts off a bit agitated, so no biggy. Once again, great video!

  • Haw phat! I love Nny he's so cool!

  • FUN!

  • This was my favorite scene from the comic. nice work.

  • I think this is my favourite JTHM vid.

  • I see Johnny as being more creepy and less pompous

  • Um, I don't mean this directly towards you bloodyhooligal, but Nny isn't ALWAYS creepy. When Nny proposes his usual speeches about the mundane, he communicates with a normal tone. However, when he's getting a wicked, idea, or threats, he'll start sounding as if a crazy person. Other words, (creepy). Oh, and I don't think Devi would have gone out with Nny if he spoke creepy all the time. XD

  • That's more a matter of opinion really, because you can't exactly say how someone speaks or presents themself from a comic book..

  • As is yours. BUT, I don't think, like I said Devi would have gone out if he's creepy all the time. I've heard of crazy people, I mean REAL crazy people, that act and speak fairly normal. But yes, Nny probably DOES sound and act creepy towards people he distastes. No hard feelings.

  • Oh, check out one my videos, it's called "JTHM Narration thingy." I voiced both Nny and the victim. It's how I interperet his voice. Maybe this will match you opinion as well.

  • great fanvid! :D

  • B:AWESOME!

    M:Great rendition of our favorite part!

  • Your hair is wrong. I know what Comic strip it is. But i find the voicing off. I do not see him talking like that sorry

  • I liked it! nice job on the make up

  • ok...ima say that this was accurate at certain points, but then again it wasnt at certain points...at certain times thwe acting was fine...and at certain times the acting wasnt that good....but overall good job...better than some of the other stuff out there.....i like the bit of improvisation... it was cool

  • u need mohawk hair D:

  • Hence the cups...

  • btw you fucked up the lines.

  • btw you fucked up the lines.

  • your not cool enough to play nny

  • I love how he collected the blood in a plastic cup

  • cool!

  • what the f is this!?!?

    i could've put more feeling into it!

    you make it sound like you dont even know the character.

    i'm dissapointed.

  • eh...

    I like edgar,

    but every one looked awfull,

    and the voices wernt as well... you know.

    but good shot at it, try putting some transactions in next time though.

  • this is pathetic. OVERACTING! YOU'RE AN INSULT TO NNY! What the hell is up with those accent?!

  • The acting is sub-par, the closest thing to appearances is Edgar's glasses...this just isn't very good.

    You just sat down with a script, a camera and tied a kid up and called it good.Should have put a lot more effort into it.

  • It was creepppppyyyyyy!!! GOD JOB!!!!!

  • If you got some more....psycho for Nny I would have enjoyed it more but they guy reminds me of someone i really dont like other then that well done. Excellent setting as well

  • Edgar is very well acted- but Johnny sounds a little... work on Johnny. LOL

  • This is probably the best JTHM video on you tube. I actually quite liked the acting, it was off, but the comic is kind of writen that way...I think you should definitly do more Jhonen inspired video, seeing as this one turned out so well!

  • good acting in general just not good for nny. sorry.

  • Hahaha I LOVE it! Not at ALL like Johnny, I'm sorry, but ignoring that, it was soooo funny. You both did really well! Especially the guy that was killed... you're actually like, a pretty good actor. Not that the other guy wasn't good. I feel like I've actually seen or heard him from somewhere before. Done anything else?

  • johnny looks bad

  • the voice was not as i expected

  • this makes me die a little.

    nny looks nothing like that.

    and what is with the makeup? hes not pale, at all.

    give a little effort much?

  • why I like it alot!! maybe I will do somethign liek this too :P

  • This is wonderful!

    I was on the edge of my seat every time Johnny considered that maybe what he was doing was wrong. I haven't actually read Johnny the Homicidal Maniac, but I'm in love with it besides.

    Great job!

  • i think that nny's sly and underlying innocence wasn't shown much, if you look at the illustrations sometimes he smiles as he says certain phrases indicating that he's desperately in need of attention and loves it when he gets it, kinda like a puppy dog. nny's not just 100% anger, he's a confused puppy with giant claws hahaa. But I did enjoy this heaps, cheers for making it! please make more!!!!

  • well, same goes for you

  • ha ha ha tis funny

  • Pretty good! The acting's good too.

  • Obviously you've never seen good acting. XD

    Kidding, it wasn't that bad actually.

  • Well, I've seen good acting, yes, but considering this is af an vid, it's not that bad lol

  • I was just about to say that was horrible acting, but you know, considering that this is an unbudgeted web video, I suppose it's not that bad. I do agree that nny was lacking though.

  • good job

    better than others ive seen

    but nny was lacking

    awsome set

    - a fellow thespian

  • johnny probably shouldnt look like a cheap mall goth. also he probably shouldnt sound like a goofy teenager. edgar was pretty neat.

  • awsome you did good but johnny dude next time maybe you should try to make your voice deeper that would probally help

  • wow!! that was the best low buget thing iv ever seen!! have you consedered showing this to Jhonen (though email)

    exept it was kinda o sporler for me. i did know edgar died!! *tear* any way that was awesome!!!

  • NO NO NO. The voice, the look. no

  • I should make a vid like this with my friends. I just need to make that shirt, I already have the hair.. though people will probably hate that too ^_^

    anyway, good job guys.

  • Edgar was done wonderfully (only thing wrong was the hair, but I wouldn't cut off that gorgeous hair just for one video) but Nny... he could have been better. a lot better. needed more manic grins and faster movements and the shirt and stuff like that... and I didn't find the voice right either. But, hey, I loved the place you guys filmed and the contraption looked fun.

  • its good..i havnt read the comic in like two years and i thought the part was more something like "i'm a christian and i'm saved and i'm going to heaven so FUCK YOU!" but not in those exact words. i dont know. you probably know it better than me.

  • It's quite simple, Edgar told Johnny, "I rather not die, but don't seem to have much say in the matter. But I'm also not like you; I'm not clouded, I don't have any family any friends, really, nothing. But I do have faith. You know in God and all that. So a heaven for me, and a hell for you. So fuck fear! I have nothing to fear!" Eh, that was from memory. I didn't watch this vid for a while either. But, he was pretty accurate.

  • A very few words I've used were a bit inaccurate, but that was straight from my memory, like I said. But no, Edgar wouldn't say such a thing, especially not "that" harsh; which I mean, in your description. Though, it made me laugh a bit. I also looked up Edgar's name, it means protector of the good. Thought I'd give ya a fun fact. :)

  • wow will you send me a message on my account. THat was amazing. "There is nothing terribly wrong with feeling lost, so long as that feeling preecedes some plan on your part to do something about it. Too often a person grows complacent perpetually wearing their disillusionment ike a favorite shirt. I cant say I am very pleased with where my life is just now, but I cannot help but to look forward to where it is going.

  • jhonny is very horrible done but the other guy is right on, up the contrasts

  • I like this one. In most of the Jthm videos I've seen, I didn't like the johnny's basically because it seemed like they were trying too hard. I HAVE read the comic by the way, and that's just how I feel.

  • No attempt at looking like the characters, followed by bad acting. Nice!

  • this lold me

  • What the... What in the world IS this??? I have never seen such a bad Nny! Who here knows how to say the written things??? So far, I have seen ONE movie with a good enterpetation of Nny's way of talking (too bad the voice was too badly adjusted... :/) but I agree with the rest. Good victim there ;)

    And also, good place to shoot in.

  • the victem was really kool does gibbe the rigth image like in tha comic ....but the guy playing Nny needs to be a bit more crazy6 like (no ofence )

  • the one in the glasses loooked a lot like Edgar, nice work w that

    The other one doesnt look AT ALL like Nny.

    The perfect Nny is johnny deep as edward scissorhands.

    who agrees??

    buuuut anyway nice work ^^

  • you should have at least sraightened that guys hair, got better clothes, and eyeliner.

    It just doesent look like Johnny at all.

  • uhhhh......

    hmm good production i think you should have recasted the Johnny

  • NO NO NO! DO NOT REMOVE! This is one of the coolest vids i have EVER seen. A great comic book, first of all, and an even greater remake. Well done, guys. Well done.

  • Very entertaining

  • jonny didnt seem that angry in the comic book, he seemed to enjoy the fact he was talking to someone for once. really good though!

  • I am hollys cousin
