From the makers of The Puffy Chair comes this strange little movie about how funny/scary a person with a bag on his head can be. It all depends on the context, apparently. For example: When it's your friend goofing around? Sort of funny. When you have a dream about a guy standing in the dark under a tree with a bag on his head? Scary. A group of 30-somethings go up to a cabin in the woods to make a movie, which has something to do with one of the ladies dreaming that she saw a guy with the "sack over his face." One member of the group, a nerdy, pasty guy, is using the movie to try to get closer to the girl he likes -- who tells him he looks like a toddler just when he thinks things are going well. Turns out he's not exactly winning her over, especially because he thinks his other friend -- who appears to be the director of the aforementioned movie within the movie -- has what the nerdy, pasty guy calls "Elvis hair." Which apparently means all of the women want him instead. As if "Elvis hair" is something women find at all desirable in 2008. In the midst of all the relationship issues, someone starts goofing around, and it turns scary. People (or one person?) keep showing up with bags over their heads, dressed in clothes belonging to members of the group, but no one will fess up. It becomes eerie and weird, and the trailer ends with all of them running for their lives at night. Yeah, maybe bagheads are more creepy than funny. Reviews By People Who've Actually Seen It:
