Brain Candy

Um...welcome to my about 7 years too late Brain Candy page! Better late than never? I don't know...but anyway welcome. I will soon be getting the script up but until then, enjoy my character analysis below along with my movie...er...thingy too. If I missed any of the characters that the Kids played please email me and curse me out...but also let me know the one I missed so I can add them. Enjoy! Note: I will be adding for the next few weeks so forgive the unfinished look of it

The Movie
The whole city has been sucked into gloominess. But that will all change when Dr. Chris Cooper develops a drug that is believed to actually cure depression. But before the right amount of testing is complete, the desperate company that he and his research team works for, Roritor, needs to release it to be the next big thing.
Gleemonex becomes more popular Pinicillan and sweeps the nation. Roritor even goes as far as to make the drug non-prescription. Three months later while Chris is enjoying fame, popularity, and groupies and Roritor is enjoying havingt the top selling drug in the world, something goes terrible wrong. The miracle anti-depressant is putting people in "gleecomas" Dr. Cooper is ready to warn an unknowing world on this dangerous side effect...but not the company. So now, Chris and his team has to figure out a way to bum the whole world out again and fast!

FACTS ABOUT BRAIN CANDY YOU ALREADY KNEW (AND SOME MAYBE YOU DIDN'T)
  • Suicidal club member who gets Chris to "sign his scars"...NOT BJ Armstrong of Green Day. I don't know how this rumor got started but hopefully it will end here
  •  Dave was the only Kid who didn't have a female character (Thanks Marie for that one)
  • The movie was originally going to be called "the Drug" but Bruce claimed that Scott didn't like the title
  • Everyone in KITH hates the ending of Brain Candy...but like it better than one of the original which had Dr, Chris Copper commiting suicide.
  • Mark had the most characters clocking in with 9. He also played the most women.

Scott
 
Homeless guy- Doesn't appear much. Is homeless at first but takes Gleemonex and becomes security gaurd...with the gun
 
Wally- Retired army vet in denile of being gay. One of the movie's most colorful characters. Also, comes out of the closet in a hella catchy song you'll be humming all day!

Marv-Don Roritor's right hand man. And I always get a kick out of his "happiness moment".
 
New Guy- Pops up on two occasions and says some off beat lines. Very classic.
 
Raymond Hurdicure- Mrs. Hurdicure's son
---------------------------
 
Kevin
 
Doreen- Wally's wife. Isn't present as much as I would have liked for her to have been but still one of my favorites.
 
Dr. Chris Cooper- Lead Scientist and inventor of Gleemonex. An easy going guy who doesn't even fret when he finds out his drug is going to be orange instead of hueish blue.
 
Chris' Dad- In a flashback to his childhood, he plays his dad. Remembered for shooting himself in both feet and two hours later hitting a vital organ an dying
 
Lacy-Tells Cabbie off in his own taxi and then doesn't pay him!
---------------------------
 
Mark
 
Cabbie- (narrator): Yes, he is our calming voice through this ride of terror! And by the end, he is the only "real human being" left in the city
 
Melanie- The whole time she's just trying to fit in and be cool by watching Death Lurks play at the Suicide Club. Is there is anything wrong with that?
 
Gunther- All he wants is someone to understand him. Appears once
 
Simon- One of the scientist on Chris' research team. He's the easiest to miss, but he's does have the very memorable scene with Brendan Frasiar.
 
Nina Bedford- Is our spunky talk show host who has Chris on the show. Hmmm...must have gotten married.
 
Don Roritor- Owner or the Roritor empire and creator of Stummies. He cares about ghetto children
 
Drill Sergeant- In Wally's flashback to the army, he's his very friendly drill instructor.
 
Cop #1- Actually saw the Nina Bedford show with Chris Cooper on there.
 
White Trash Woman- Appears with her boyfriend/fiance/husband and seems to break up with him for good.
------------------------
 
Bruce
 
Alice- Hands down the coolest, er, chick in the movie. She is Chris' love interest, she one of the scientist on the research team, and is the first to notice something is wrong with Gleemonex
 
Grivo- Depressed rocker who plays at the Suicide Club all all the time. Is determained to "fuck happy" but three months later after the drug is released, gets hold of it and gives the world "Happiness Pie"
 
Cancer Boy- Another easy character to miss. Meets Cr. Cooper at Don's house. Says that Gleemonex helped his parents. He later goes on to win an award for his hit song "Whistle When You're Low"
 
Cisco- The character you really wanted to hate but couldn't because he has the greatest line in the whole movie. Cisco creates the name for the drug in his $62,000 car.
 
Worm Pill Scientist- Invents a pill that gives worms to ex-girlfriends...but Roritor just doesn't get it.
 
White Trash Man- Steals a vehichle to make up for sleeping with g-friend's best friend and then telling her about it...how thoughtful.
 
Cop #2- Has a dream about toast fucking. Lovely.
