"DELICIOUSLY TWISTED... SUPERBLY HELMED... THIS CLEVER, HEARTFELT PIECE OF GONZO INDIE FILMMAKING IS THE MOVIE NATURAL BORN KILLERS SHOULD HAVE BEEN." - BAY AREA REPORTER "JIMMY AND JUDY, A HELLISH ROMEO-AND-JULIET "ROMANCE"... IS A DISTINCTLY DISTURBING PIECE OF TRUE CINEMATIC GENIUS... THE MOST BEAUTIFULLY MESSED-UP HOMAGE TO LOVE AND DEVOTION I HAVE WITNESSED SINCE SECRETARY." - SKRATCH MAGAZINE
Welcome to American suburbia, a place where the image of the "perfect family" is so meticulously cultivated that friends, neighbors, even the closest of family, have no idea what truly lies beneath the surface...
For JIMMY (Edward Furlong), a hyper-intelligent, college dropout, exposing the truth is something he does only by accident. he's obsessed with his handheld video camera which he uses to tape anything and everything in his life, playing God with the lens. He manipulates his parents, their friends, even his therapist, entirely for his own amusement. There are even rumors that Jimmy was expelled from college because he talked his roomate into committing suicide on camera.
Things take a turn when Jimmy refocuses his attentions on JUDY (Rachael Bella) a timid ingenue who's constantly bullied at school. Hoping to gain her affections, he exacts revenge upon her enemies at school, taping himself in the act. When Judy sees it, she quickly falls in love with her passionate protector, and the two become entangled in a whirlwind romance.
Exploring sex, drugs, gunplay, even petty theft, the two fall desperately in love, videotaping everything they do, but their escalating antics inevitably lead to disaster. After a freak roadside accident and a desperate encounter with the cops, Jimmy and Judy find themselves on the run from the law and are forced to seek refuge in the underbely of America just to survive.
JIMMY AND JUDY is a film that highlights what Middle America so desperately tries to hide - mental illness, violence, sexual perversions, drug abuse, and family dysfunction - all captured entirely on HOME VIDEO by two misfit teenagers who fall in love while rampaging their way across the country in search of elusive teenage nirvana.
