Things I learned from Disturbing Behavior


1.) Reading Kurt Vonnegut books is a tell tale sign that you are hiding your genius.

2.) Teenage girls just need one look at Cyclops to become sexually aroused killers, whereas teenage boys require a blow job to achieve the same effect.

3.) If you want to get laid by Katie Holmes after the 15 killer psycho teenagers chasing you have been killed, all you have to do is say, "We're the only ones left" Then you can go off into the world and start a new human population from scratch.

4.)There is always a get-away motorcycle... if you're Cyclops.

5.)School janitors make their own revolutionary rat-killing technology.

6.) State mental hospitals are severely underfunded.

7.) You can get away with shooting cops if you have a good "throwing arm" and keep your fluids intact for the big game.

8.) High school kids get up and leave when there's a fight in the cafeteria.

9.) U-turns are a waste of time, especially when confronted by a pack of zombie kids blocking the road.

10.) Robotic lobotomized kids' eyes glow red when they're horny - and - student teachers apparently get turned on by a classroom full of inner city youth.


Please feel free to share what you've learned.

lmao, classic.
TBH, I actually did like this movie, but when you really look at it, it's freaking hystarical. I really like number 6. I watched it last night on demand, and durring that scene I was like.. "Good god, they seriously don't have that hospital under control."
Nice list.

No kidding? I saw this On Demand too.

We have Comcast to thank for promoting this fine cinematic treasure.

reply

lol I just watched it on demand too. I was surprised that so many people made comments on this so recently. hehe

reply

haha two years later and i can say that too watch this film ondemand...this was the weirdest movie ever!

"Naw uh fool! Thats the babies' lunch!"

reply



LOL

yeah this film was so bad it was good. When I was watching it, i was just like what the *beep*

I mean seriously, the whole storyline (or lack there of)..the obvious ''America-brain-washes-its-kids'' political BS, The steryotypes!! Ah my god, that guy..the albino dude was theeee worst actor in the whole movie. And who painted his face white!! I know he's supposed to be the ''Stoner friend'' but he didnt need to be THAT white. it looks ridiculous.

its just very low-budget and sort of...like an episode of goosebumps.

However, I still enjoy watching this, just cause it's so entertaining.

#11.) Drugs not only make your skin turn white, they also impair acting ability.

#12.) Parents concerned for the wellbeing of their children are completely oblivious to the murderous mob just outside their house (and clearly visible from the screen door) beating the crap out of their son.

#13.) When you fear that staying in town is a danger to your life, the best course of action is to go home and make a video tape of yourself yammering about it until the bad guys get you. As opposed to... say... leaving town.

reply

#14.) Not all mad scientists are trying to take over the world. Some of them are more reasonable in their expectations and will settle for the senior class of the local high school.

#15.) Middle aged mad scientists have 2 weaknesses when it comes to hand-to-hand combat: the sucker punch, and cliffs. Otherwise they are basically kungfu experts.

reply

LOL I just watched it on On Demand As well

It is so bad.

reply

They edited the crap out of it on On Demand. What's up with that? They left in most of the swears but got rid of the stuff about the brother. I know I wasn't hallucinating that when I saw this movie 10 years ago.

reply

What're we up to: #16?
#16 If you're breathtakingly handsome--AND TALENTED and young and are trying to make a career for yourself, doing comedy and drama, you'll seldom be forgiven or taken seriously. Especially if you've never taken singing, dancing, or especially, acting lessons.

11) I think that kid was an Albino. Maybe I'm wrong. LOL!

It's amazing how Western Washington and Vancouver B.C. have similiar weather. Atleast they got that right.

reply

And who painted his face white!! I know he's supposed to be the ''Stoner friend'' but he didnt need to be THAT white. it looks ridiculous.

Actually, most Albinos are that white. His skin and hair were pretty realistic, considering he's got dark-brown hair in real life. His eyes were too normal-looking though. I'd say creating a convincing albino was just about the only thing this movie did right.

reply

Katy Holmes might not be able to act but Damn she looked good in this flick. Nice juggs.

reply

I watched it on On Demand last night as well. It's the perfect sort of movie for when you're bored and half-drunk at 1 am, but don't feel like going to bed.

One thing I learned from the movie is that even if you've wiped out the entire threat that you're running away from (in this case the doctor and brain washed kids), you should still flee your home to start a new life...

reply

i learnt 2 things, Katie holmes can`t act, it not only when on Dawsons Creek, and this movie blew bigtime. An insult to old school sci-fi/horror flicks.

"I`M RUNNIN THIS MONKEY FARM NOW FRANKENSTEIN..."

reply

I learned that one side effect of being brainwashed to be a "good kid (aka: Blue Ribbon)" is that it will automatically make you act like a character from Leave it to Beaver...complete with sitting in the local malt shop in your school sweater listening to 50s music.

And yes, I know it was technically a yogurt shop in the movie, but come on... in the scene when Steve is walking down the street and he sees Gavin through the window, you can hear the old-fashioned 50s music blaring...I half expected to see Potsy and Ralph Malph come strolling out.

Here's something I learned. Being clean-cut isn't always the best for your health.
What's your name, son?
Zeke Robertson. And I ain't your son either.
Catch ya on the flip side.

reply

Here's something I learned, apparently a 17 year old student can become a student teacher without going to college and taking the appropriate classes.

reply

I learned that the word 'razor' can be used as a subsitute for cool...and it should be!

oh and i learned that the scientific field of neuro-pharmacolegy (which i imagine can't be much different to psychiatry) is concerned with no more than 'mind control'

11 yrs later i still hate nick stahl.

Nick stahl cant act to save his life


before driving off a cliff with mindless zombies all over your car tying to kill you, you better yell HEY TEACHER!! LEAVE THOSE KIDS ALONE!!!


there always a creepy pale stoner albino kid somewhere in a school



I KNOW 2 things that are clear.I'm a great sinner,Christ is a great Savior.


reply

The end of the movie taught me that a victim of some obscure retinal implant is suddenly a threat to inner city schools. Are we supposed to believe that high schooler Stahl now has the knowledge and ability to continue the neuro experiments?

Furthermore, I learned that if someone is experimenting on neighbourhood children, one half of the population is unaware of the conspiracy while the other half helps.

reply

The implant gives people super human strength.

reply

I learned that actors usually known for clean cut roles, can make themselves into an evil scientist by donning a mustache (even if is barel noticeable).

reply

I learned to "be the ball."

--> It's better to hang out with the 'Greasers' than with the 'Socials'.

--> School psychologists don't have administrative paperwork to submit and clinical records to keep.

--> Custodians are kookie but cool, help to get protagonists out of a jam, and can even save lives. Just ask Rudy Ruettiger, John McClane, Zack and Cody, and the Breakfast Club kids. Okay, except maybe the horribly burned perverted kind that turn evil and deadly.

--> Trucks and carryalls aren't able to plow through Blue Ribbon Socials bent on brainwashing, but they can haul a number of them over cliffs to the bottom of the abyss.

--> "Do you expect me to talk, Gold Finger?" "No, Mister Bond. I expect you to die!"

--> Camera shots panning Katie Holmes from feet to face are important shots indeed for a thriller. The Desperate Measures cameraman knew the money shot from get-go.

--> Though possibly very intelligent, ugos, fatties, albinos and people of other race and ethnicity never have to worry about being labeled Blue Ribbon, at least in that town.

--> Blue Ribbon kids will never be as creepy-cool as The Village of the Damned kids.

--> There's never a winged, flesh-eating creeper that snatches egoistic varsity athletes when you need one.


Objection, your Honor. You can't preface your second point with first of all.
