GOd (2002)

God (2002, NOR) C/B&W-80m. **½ D: Johnny Markussen. Starring David Allen, Thomas Eirheim, Ronny Fagereng, Stig Rune Haugen, Edgar Wilde. Experimental drama about Allen, who is the new inmate in an insane asylum. He tries to oppose authority by proclaiming himself God, but is there any way out of the madness? Plot is second-rate and seems like a retread of ONE FLEW OVER THE CUCKOO'S NEST (1975) - with less-than-stellar acting - but experimental animated sequences are quite good and make this no-budget film interesting. Written by first-time director Markussen.
