Richard McBeef: The Motion Picture

[piecat42]

This is a postmodern work of art.

[dinkhead1]

i wouda punched that kid in the face BEFORE he tried to choke me with a granola bar

[TIGAHRAWR]

Wtf is up with the random rap music?

[MrGerbilGoof]

Shitty "rap" music kind of messed it up

[Irrenmann]

I quote from "Richard McBeef" all the time:

"Man to man up your ass, bud!"

"My poor little pooey pooey boy!"

"You fat piece of pork!"

"Are you a bisexual psycho rapist murderer?"

"...you prematurely ejaculating piece of dickshit!"

[onlyrealnumber]

I don't see a single thing wrong with the writing.

Also, I liked Kazaam.

[CCGMASTER]

The synopsis made this seem a lot more interesting. It really fucking sucks.

[ShhBrad1984]

I love this video. Can't stop watching it. The actors did a perfect job. I don't think it was meant to be serious acting. Seems almost as though they are trying to make fun of Seung-hui more than do his one-act actual justice. Perfect to me. "What? What?" and "You were packin' on McDonald's fat." = best parts. Honorable mention is the thrown Styrofoam.

[Arcticfenixyz]

Is even more disturbing seeing that shitty script in a video if you know where it comes from. Nice job guys, made me laugh but I dont think this screenplay was suposed to :S

[ThatAtheistBastard]

lol you guys are fucked. This play sucks. Its the ramblings of a individual slowly losing his mind, and in reality is just sad and pathetic.

[spaceyplace]

I liked the part where both the script and acting were terrible.

[ficsci]

the bad acting makes it even more disturbing (.__.); I can't keep watching

[MissInternetGuru]

THIS "MOVIE" IS FUCKING HILARIOUS!

[goodnamestaken]

The Dad is the only one taking this seriously. Great professional actor. Those other ones are mucking this up. Can we please get some talent in here, I want to watch this the way it was meant to be shown.

[fetchy15]

4:20 "DICK YOU SON OF A- bitch."

[StrangePretence]

It's like Hamlet.

Written by a genius.

[MOTHERofSEPHY]

10/10 stars on imdb.

[Malkmusianful]

Goes to show that psychopaths can't write anything good at all.

[RapidAscension1989]

Blue kid is super lulz

[proudstr8]

1:44 lmao good line to use in real life too

[proudstr8]

best adaptation on here

[TheSanguineOne]

John's actor is a hot version of Ferris Bueller.

[mbuller11]

are you full of shit McBeef, I can see you are by the extra fat you have packed on

[21centurynostradamus]

''simply amazing'' says new york times

''a modern day masterpiece '' msnbc

''a must see movie mcbeef is well done'' rottentomatoes

[dinkhead1]

@21centurynostradamus LOL

[dementedhorses]

Lmao. I always say, "WHAT ARE YOU A CATHOLIC PRIEST!?" Rofl.

[peacock427]

Chief Seneca Thanks You for your Good Spirit. Ah ha o um ee on o. good fortune.

[lushie]

I know this was written by an extremely disturbed person but when put on as an act it just becomes oddly hilarious xD

[stryker1121]

Should I feel bad this had me rolling? Esp the kid's final speech to McBeef in the car. Product of a deranged mind though it may be..

[jyrezz]

"look at his face... what an asshole face!"

[sergioapuzzo]

deep



[ANeonTiger]

This is so weird to me that so many people took it upon themselves to film the performance of this play and post in on Youtube.

[MrJohndoakes]

@ANeonTiger It's an (unintentional?) spastic mess of a play, so it has camp value. If trained theater people could turn "Manos" into a musical, then untrained actors could do "Richard McBeef", and they did it well here.

[kamapuaa2]

Richard McBeef is so awesome. Good acting all around.

[jasonashland]

This is features some of the GREATEST acting I have ever seen. Brando, DeNiro, Pacino all SUCK compared to master thespianism displayed in Richard McBeef!!

[MrBluesclues5]

i think the girl was hot lol

[MrBluesclues5]

lol i think the girl was just paranoid or just hallucinating

[zcrosby]

Cho deserves a post-humous Oscar for this piece!

[zcrosby]

cinema at its finest!

[buddhastalin]

if you want your play turned into a youtube movie all you gotta do is work hard and kill 30 people. YES WE CAN

[Cammie010]

haha much better than the other McBeef video

[gabba1gabba1hey]

CHING CHONG BATTLE PRANS

[bushidowarlord]

Man to man, up your ass, bud!

[dchris1990]

2:21 we make fun of seung for this, but we praise shakespeare for it lol

[Nightmareske]

who talks like this?

[Straichen]

There's something strangely compelling about these absurd characters. And you have to ask yourself whether mcbeef is justified in attacking the son. Despite being the most reasonable and patient, he is continuously abused and alienated by the people he should be closest to. Since we see that he is capable of murder in the end, were the son's accusations truthful? Is the son a product of an insane, gullible mother or are they both simply traumatized by a recent death? Why is mcbeef involved?

[JayKeaton]

@Straichen There are so many deep and probing questions about human-kind that are raised by Richard McBeef. I always discover something new and fascinating with each reading of the script, on account of its myriad of complex layers and references to modern society and culture. If I had to be stuck on a deserted island with just one book, it would be the Richard McBeef script. It is truly the Ulysses of our generation.

[camgan1]

@Straichen You are trying to look too deeply into the play. Hui's writings have been reviewed by writers and novelists and all agree that his writing is juvenile and "not good". If anything his writing just demonstrates his mental instability.

[Irrenmann]

@camgan1 That sounds like an undergraduate-level response. There is no such thing as "too deeply." His reading of the text is no less valid than theirs.

[camgan1]

@Irrenmann I think Stephen King along with doctors who reviewed his writings have a more valid viewpoint than someone on the internet.

[Irrenmann]

@camgan1 Then it's time for you to understand that in literature studies, readings are valid to the extent that they can be supported by your analysis and interpretation of textual evidence, not because of who said them. That's why professors (yes, some of us use the Internet) don't say things like "this reading is the correct one, because I'm the professor."

Of course, if Stephen King is your idea of literature, then you may have only a dim idea what literary criticism is in the first place.

[camgan1]

@Irrenmann If you choose to think this is a well written story then I don't think I need to provide any further arguments.

[Useless2112]

I'm impressed that you managed to make this within nine days of the massacre.

[BaronKrool]

WHY ALL THE JEEZY?

[BigDogJang0]

A legendary story written by a legendary man.

[johnnyrook68]

needs a sequel

[dave55811]

God damn it I'm trying to add this to my faves but it keeps saying "Invalid request". Dx

[116Bears]

The chick that plays mom cannot act.

[iFoodums]

@116Bears The hero that wrote this play cannot write.

[Thunderchin]

Dude. TV Movie awaits.

[vivafulci]

I would pay money to see more of this. I'm not joking.

[slackerdan416]

Do Not Fuck With Dad McBeef.

[cchandle]

I love you people for doing this. Great work.

[TheGhostOfHumanLogic]

Lol what a surprise this gook was crazy

[KoboFox]

He's totally smiling at 10:09 . XD

[thegreatloy]

now let's go to the bedroom, where we can do it doggy-style, just how you like it honeypoo.

[taxidriver1990]

Best part: "What? What?" He's in such shock!

[TheRivetthead]

awesome

[PLAZTIX]

how were you able to get hold of the play?

[gauchebag]

the kid playing mcbeef looks ridiculous with his shoes/jeans combo and when he said "try dad" his voice acting was awful

[bcgabriot]

@gauchebag ...that's the point

[youraonkgrayx]

OMFG SO FUCKING FUNNY LMAO...HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA THE CHAINSAW PART...LMAO

[MyAssHasWorms]

"McPork.... I mean McBeef...."

[imanoakyboy]

lets do it doggy style. LOL

[hotmail319]

i wonder wut cho thinks about this

[DrRevBob]

Ever see an old movie called Night of the Hunter? The original starred Robert Mitchum and was directed by Charles Laughton. It was considered so bizarre at the time that Laughton never got another directing job. The remake was with Richard Chamberlain, which--knowing what we know about him--was even creepier. This nut's McBeef thing is actually kind of similar. Wonder if any of his supposed expert profs noticed, or if he found only dark sarcasm in the classroom?

[mistacramer]

@DrRevBob

I saw the original but never knew there was a remake. When was it made? Who was Chamberlain and why was he creepy?

[goodflo911]

wow, this is actually a very good play. I'd like to shake the hand of the guy who made this. I'm sure he's a very cool guy and doesnt afraid of anything

[youraonkgrayx]

@goodflo911

DUDE. THE GUY WHO MADE THIS PLAY WAS CHO SEUNG HUI. THE KILLER OF VIRGINIA TECH MASSACRE. HE KILLED 32 PEOPLE. A SCHIZOPHRENIC. YES, HE'S NOT AFRAID OF ANYTHING! Good luck shaking his hand, btw.

[goodflo911]

@youraonkgrayx Hm, he's an hero of mine!

[youraonkgrayx]

@goodflo911

Haaha, I know that a mass murderer made up this play, but hell, it made me rofl.

[AFB12131415]

@youraonkgrayx And he killed hmself, too

[swastikkking]

LOL at 10:08

[kyleshaks]

mcbeef is the most hardcore mother fucker around XD

[flazzgta2]

Just stop it, Michael Jackson! LOL

[flazzgta2]

This is the best video I have ever seen on Youtube!

[d3vilscry666]

Is this really how the play was written?!

[BryanAJParry]

@d3vilscry666

Yes. I read the play before it got taken offline. IT was absurd. And the beautiful ham acting in this vid does it justice; the words here are 100% accurate as I remember.

[swastikkking]

@BryanAJParry no, the play is still online. Go to thesmokinggun(.)com and type in "cho seung-hui" and click on "Virginia Killer's violent writings".......you can read the full play there.

[c2bed]

BEST THING EVAER

[thereaIblackcerberus]

Better than Twilight

[jonmaxx]

@HBKanedge818, The transcripts of the plays were released by AOL almost immediately following the incident when it was discovered that a current employee of AOL was in his class and still had possession of these works. You could put something like this together in a day, and a lot of the shots were taken where they could have easily been reading off the paper. Besides that, with such infantile script, how long would it REALLY take to memorize anyway? :) Props to the actors..

[Wattapus]

So usually when I see stuff this bad on youtube I try to convince the maker that they shouldn't bother the world by living anymore.

I guess they agreed.

[beingjoshmc]

Terrible fucking acting, terrible fucking editing, can we get an adaptation of this play that is done well? I think it could really be an amazingly dark and insightful play if only it was done right.

[Senjhin]

@beingjoshmc Leave.

[beingjoshmc]

@Senjhin Hey, all you have to do is fix some of his typos, take out and add just a few things and with a hollywood budget your in business. It might not be well written but I've seen some big box office successes with terrible writing as well. Take the main theme of the story and rewrite it if you have to. You could make alot of money solely based on who wrote it originally. People love a chance to see into the mind of a killer.

[Senjhin]

@beingjoshmc Yeah, but this kid wasn't twisted in the sense that he was cunning and sociopathic and etc. He was just some alienated tortured kid that wrote really bad stories for lack of imagination and explosive inner anger.

[Vikkoman]

@beingjoshmc I beg to differ. I think this had appropriately corny acting, great editing, etc. If you want a better adaptation, why not convince a group of friends to film one, and we'll see which one is better.

[sparks158]

awesome.

[ThatSmoothOperator]

misunderstood genius

[izzygizzy2]

you prematurely ejaculating piece of dickshit

[HBKanedge818]

Nice re-enactment but I would picture John's death to be way more violent because Cho saw himself as Richard McBeef.. You guys posted this a mere 9 days after the massacre. how were you able to know that much about Cho so quickly let alone a random play he written.

[Volcanic9]

GENIUS!

[MrWhite]

man to man up your assssss bud!

[DexterrsDad]

THREE big macs in THREE minutes!

[deathcabangel]

I think they changed the ending. I'm pretty sure Cho's ego(that makes up for his azn epeen) is large enough that he kills his dad. Also, I'd be careful about saying gook mutter dutter, its their equivalent of nigger

[Vikkoman]

@deathcabangel No, the original ending does have the dad hit the son. As a matter of fact people speculate that the dad is supposed to represent the killer

[jonahradio]

Good job, guys. I really liked this. You should do a video for "Mr. Brownstone." I think I like that play better. It's like Kafka or something.

[jonahradio]

Good job, guys. I really liked this. You should do a video for "Mr. Brownstone." I think I like that play better. It's like Kafka or something.

[mutterdutterdud]

cho sung gook i mean chink i mean faggot was the worst writer ever

he made worse scripts than uwe boll

chinese gook

[XenophobicPiglet]

Outstanding.

So how faithful to Cho's original script was this?

[LordOfKetchup]

fuck you dad!

[DBxSnowman]

YOU GIANT TREE-TRUNK PIECE OF ASS! LOL

[danju2]

really bad...the thing is overall magnificent...i didn't like the 30 dollar budget.

[zepps88]

this is hilarious, but what's disturbing about it is that it wasn't meant to be a comedy. Cho was trying to write a serious story

[turingtape]

Are you a bisexual-psycho-rapist-murdere­r?

[mistacramer]

@turingtape

I always get stuck on that question during job interviews?

[mahlerite]

After watching this transfixing film adaptation of Cho's profound masterpiece, which if I am not mistaken delves into the issues of Marxian class struggle and the racial divide during the African-American Civil Rights Movement, I looked beside me and noticed that I filled a walloping 11 buckets up to their brims with my vomit! It's such a GROSS movie, but it has to be the BEST one I have ever watched! (It would also be especially compelling to hear Morgan Freeman narrate a version of McBeef.)

[HAAAAAAATTTEE]

perfect execution, possibly the best thing ever

[pdpbigbang]

i wonder who cho would consider to identify himself as; mcbeef or the kid?

[sjwright76]

This was great! The guy who played mcbeef did a great job, but he didn't really fit the description. Should have been fatter/balder. The kid did an awesome job. The girl was ok too, but too young to be his mom. The Young Jeezy music was strangely appropriate too. Overall grade: B-

[porkchopenvy]

Fuck you in the ass. I'm not even joking. Cho was not a bad person. He was just severely disturbed. If only there hadnt been so much scum in the world he probably could have lived a happy healthy life. All you are doing is making a soulless ruthless mockery of him and all the innocent people who died because of the scum that caused him to be this way.

[zepps88]

@porkchopenvy oh please. we ALL have to live with the scum on this earth, not just Cho. but you don't see everyone running around with guns shooting each other. this motherfucker doesn't deserve any sympathy for what he did.

[porkchopenvy]

@zepps88 I'm going to respectfully tell you to go fuck yourself and dip your pee stick in a can of tar in your garage with all the other tools that make you sexually aroused. Cho was a good kid. All the excrement of the world just overloaded him. If I ever catch you pulling this shit again I will track you down and shoot to kill you slowly and painfully. I'm not even joking. People like you just piss me the fuck off.

[zepps88]

@porkchopenvy he was overloaded by the excrement that his brain created. he was living in a delusional world and he snapped. he had a very loose grip on reality and should have been living in a mental institute. he was just so shy and introverted that nobody realized how crazy he actually was.

good luck tracking me down, dipshit. i'm fucking terrified...

[porkchopenvy]

@zepps88 Well, just know that you're being a shameless asshole and if you continue to act like this I will pray that you become a global pariah. I just hope you will think about how you are acting.

[Informer3X]

@porkchopenvy

What scum? You?

You think in your linear, pretty head that if we just hang anyone who would bully or say a single negative word, and no one would ever commit evil again? Yes, society can derange individuals, but rarely to the point where they murder in cold blood. Cho has only himself to blame for what he did--the fact that he considered himself a martyr and Jesus just goes to show that he was fully willing and had no regrets in murder.

[porkchopenvy]

@Informer3X I'm going to ask you a question and all I want you to do is think about what you're saying. Are you an asshole?

[Informer3X]

@porkchopenvy

There you go. That's the limit of your intelligence: using expletives to counter what you have no explanation for. Next time, think before you speak, or rather, write something. You're not going to get very far in life supporting the likes of Cho and others like Timothy McVeigh, who I'm sure you also consider a "victim of society". Other than that, I can recommend you use a Yellow Book to find a few good psychologists

[CalliopeCarina]

Anyone reckon Cho himself could have been molested? Or is it just another reason for the kid to hate McBeef? I almost wish I didn't know who wrote this cos it's kinda funny. Well done guys brilliant performances.

I love 'pooey pooey boy' line. Cho was trying to be funny in parts.

[HailChaos]

Lol, worst screen play ever.

[mrrusss]

I wonder if actually wanting to be a writer, while possessing the degree of talent suggested by this play, wouldn't plunge any of us, and quickly, into the depravity of arbitrary murder.

[mrrusss]

Rambling, disjointed and unimaginative. Somehow, it even manages to lack the interesting quality of crazy. Even the morbid fascination of an associated record-setting act of mass murder fails to inspire. In fact, the work is not enhanced by morbid fascination; rather, this work is somehow bad enough to blunt the significance awarded Cho by his murders. Works of greater artistic importance are created accidently by most people.

[dwilmer7]

Agreed, this is comedy gold. btw, the stepdad is about as ineffectual as possible, while the kid is soooo freakin annoying. I wanna slapo that biatch!!!

Also i think the play shows how Seong viewed adults, as "other" life forms basically. The guy was a complete loon! yay!

[ShhBrad1984]

Goddamn, this is hilarious.

[geo8rge]

Even with all the flaws I think this is the best Richard McBeef yet. Step dad has to be played by a fat balding person imo.

[geo8rge]

Presence of the Sundance film festival / Verizon ad is unexpected to say the least.

[oilmonkie]

yeah, pretty bad acting, but interesting nonetheless.

[zepps88]

@oilmonkie it wasn't bad acting, just bad screenwriting

[citybuster]

For sure Cho's script is nothing but literary abomination, but the acting isn't any better. I guess I should say that it was probably smart for the guy who plays McBeef to show little if any emotion. Cos what would have happened if he had tried harder? Just look at the other two and you will know.

[citybuster]

This is just a usual adolescent violence/sexual/profanity-lade­n piece of "literature". No one would have guessed what was gonna happen just by reading this.

[averagehomosapien]

@citybuster

What are you talking about? This is a poetic masterpiece. It's subtle irony and allusions to pre-colonial times is masterful. Never have heard such transcendent use of the English language. Move over, Keats!

[averagehomosapien]

@averagehomosapien

Oh god.. I hope people didn't really take what I said seriously.........

[promontorium]

@citybuster sure, If he wrote this at 13, I'd think it was normal. But he wrote this pile of shit in his 20s. Cho never mentally matured.

[karlmarx2010]

cool movie

[FatherWarhol]

You gave a mass murderer what he wanted by filming that shitty script.

[jack00008]

he didn't wanna make a movie: he wanted to wipe out the human race.

either way this movie sucks and everyone talks about how shitty this is, so i don't think he'd want this embarrassment.

[AndrewKo1218]

This is full of so much win

[MiniDJBeirne]

of course he's watching virginia tech coverage on tv

[Mailorder]

greatest

[DarkWolfen]

This was really sorry. He was every character in this crappy story.

[bingqi]

wow wonderful, very exciting

[msaghirmd]

This guy was fucking retarded.

[FatherWarhol]

why?

[Cakerolled]

The scene in the car was pretty good.

[Evenst3vn]

LOL SHE THREW STYROFOAM AT HIM

[RougeAgentman]

chainsaw!!! FTW!!!

[gorramdoll]

I feel guilty about it but I have to admit to having a morbid interest in SHC's plays, and this is a pretty good dramatization.

[nickblaze420]

what the fuck was with the intro music it doesnt relate to this shit at all this shit sucks monkey cock

[Maxpound]

I must admit this is quite the shitty play even by my low standards.

[gmike77]

anyone who wroships cho needs to get BTK'd

[THOMASkaaz]

the chainsaw part always kills me

[upthepunx145]

Bravo Cho Seung excellent play! Two thumbs up

[treezzzzz]

wow cho seung hui is some fucked up shit

before i saw this i couldnt even imagine in my wildest dreams something this retarded.

they shoulda him out when they saw him write this, and maybe he wouldnt have been able to kill all those people

[therealretard]

pooey pooey boy XD

[mrtony80]

This version is actually pretty well done. A lot better than the one where the guys hold the script as they deliver their lines.

[aboynamedmass]

hey im with bjggjb i dont know about shakespeare but it is slowly becoming a cult classic

[clyrenternal]

You need to work on your darts :L

[Harbinger1171991]

Yes, there was a chainsaw in the original.
