So, "Johnny Veggie" is this quirky little gem from 2000; it’s got a very raw, almost improvised feel to it, with a story that’s simple yet oddly compelling. You’ve got Juan, who’s just trying to share his food, and this guy who, well, crosses an ethical line by stealing it while he sleeps. There’s something about the atmosphere, a mix of tension and humor, that keeps you engaged. The practical effects, while not groundbreaking, lend a certain charm, and the performances feel genuine—like you’re peering into this slice of life. Its pacing might not be for everyone, but it creates a unique narrative rhythm that adds to its distinctiveness.
"Johnny Veggie" has had a bit of a mixed reception in collector circles, mainly due to its obscure director and the overall lack of information surrounding it. There are some rare formats out there, but it’s not the easiest film to track down; that scarcity adds to its intrigue. I’ve seen a few VHS copies that pop up occasionally, but they tend to go quickly, mostly because fans appreciate the oddity of it all. Definitely worth keeping an eye on if you’re into obscure titles with a unique storytelling style.
