NOW ON YOUTUBE! Possibly for the first time, a fan tribute out funs its inspiration with writer/director Chris Brown’s very entertaining Schizopolis 2: Psycho Killer. Film buff Chris (Chris Brown) is riding out the pandemic in Toronto in late 2021 with his wife Tamiko (Tamiko Brown) and their son Kai (Kai Brown). One day a deranged man with a knife (Will) tries to carjack Chris. Struggling with his seatbelt to get his wallet out, Chris looks up, and the man isn’t there anymore.
“All his Steven Soderbergh DVDs suddenly have different director cuts…”
Completely bewildered, Chris comes across something even more startling while going through his DVD collection in the basement. All his Steven Soderbergh DVDs suddenly have different director cuts with actor and story changes that make them more mainstream. Then Chris can’t find his favorite Soderbergh DVD, the wildly experimental 90s-era Schizopolis. Not only is the DVD missing, but so is any mention of Schizopolis in Soderbergh’s filmography. He reaches out to his buddy Timbo (Timbo), who doesn’t remember watching the movie with Chris at the Toronto International Film Festival, even though it became one of their favorites. Chris then reaches out to a Soderbergh expert (Justin Decloux) who scoffs at the idea that such a renewed Hollywood director would ever make an anti-commercial movie like Schizopolis.
Chris realizes he is in an alternate universe where Soderbergh becomes a hack because he never cut loose with Schizopolis. Then Chris starts getting weird phone calls, accusing him of adultery and demanding large sums of money borrowed to be returned. Chris then finds that his old stack of porn DVDs has switched to violent torture movies. Finally, when he comes across an honest to god snuff movie, Chris realizes the alternate Chris in this alternate universe is in deep with some sick s**t.
