It can accidentally be really intense and personal work, and sometimes it means that fans can take things too far. It is the central premise behind "The Fanatic", the 2019 thriller co-written and directed by the frontman of Limp Bizkit, Fred Darst, who follows a neurodivergent man named Moshnon Travolta who becomes forcibly obsessed with his favorite actor, Hanter Danar. Darst Co-wrote the film with screenwriter Dave Beckerman and loosely based on his own experiences with the fans who started holding it, though Mosa took matters in truly frightening places. Los is not just a kind of obsessive fan who knows everything he knows about someone, like hardcore paths or for Funny fictional "Galaxy Quest" random; He also begins to walk Hunter, and even break into his home.

The "fanatic" is a bizarre film that never nails its tone, and although Travolta is fully committed to the part, it is both a good and bad thing about the elections in which it is being run. Some audiences consider all the work funny and see it as Tommy Wiseo's "room" Where it is "so bad, it is good", but some of the moments that people find funny can be really harmful to members of the neurodi -mediwering audience, especially those of the spectrum of autism - for which Los is coded to be part of - so that it is a kind of complicated.

While Travolta's son, Etet, who died from a seizure of 16 years, was diagnosed with autism and many of Large, bold elections to perform Travolta in the "fanatic" He could see his attempt to pay tribute to his son, they unfortunately also play in harmful stereotypes. Mos, who works as a street artist, has violent outbursts and even choking colleague street performer in a moment of rage. Los is a movie obsessive and often references and quotes his favorite films, and while it can make a few moments that are kind of funny out of context, given the 110% of Travolta's performance, they are terrible if you think of real people who share passions and diagnostics, but they would never hurt anyone.

The direction of Darst is surprisingly capable, though there are times that reminds you of what you are seeing, how Hunter turns the radio into his car and play a Bizkit sheet for his son before declaring how much he wants the group. By the time this tonal confused thriller approaches, only one thing feels for sure: the "fanatic" is one of Travolta's worst films. And in view of his Shoot with really terrible moviesIt really says something. At least it's still better than "staying alive", right?
