Hole Head 2010 - Program Guide 'Jimmy Topper vs The Goatman of Bowie'

Jimmy Tupper vs The Goatman of Bowie

Dir: Andrew Bowser

Jimmy is a full on loser who works at a local Starbucks and gets hammered with pals that can only loosely bee seen as “friends.” I have heard of people taking a passed out “friend” and drawing on his/her face with a sharpie, but what kind of demented rat bastards would take a passed out “buddy” and dump them off in the middle of the woods to spend the night exposed in the elements? Certainly no friends of mine would do this, and with the aforementioned drunken sharpie abuse aside, I cannot fathom such callous behavior. Well, in the night the Goatman of Bowie attacks Jimmy. His “friends” think it is more malarkey from their loser buddy and heap abuse on him after his traumatic night in the woods.

What to do? Well, in the tradition of The Blair Witch Project with the creepy night woods and all the hand held camera documentary action captured for the audience, we join Jimmy as he plans to spend three nights in the woods with the ultimate goal of capturing this wily Goatman on camera. In the back of my mind I think, Jimmy is nuts and there is no Goatman. Really, is this a cry for help? Is this just the loser dude out in the woods trying to make up for the fact that he has, well, cried wolf and made a drunken spectacle of himself? That would be my guess…. And? Oh, let’s just say that you will be in for a surprise here at the ending of this film and all that leads up to it, it will take the wind right out of you. Jimmy seems a spineless loser from the start but finally grow balls out of nowhere. Jimmy Tupper may have no merit in his drunken antics and poor choice of friends, but ultimately? Well, you’ll see. This one takes a lovely twist and goes a bit beyond where Blair Which left off. You will actually get beyond creepy effects. Yes, you will get up front and personal with The Goatman of Bowie!
