If you look back through the five pages, Michael (six now, thank you), you'll see that it's not just his fake film reviews that have been discussed. He was a published novelist, poet, short story writer, critic, and illustrator. Those accomplishments are real. Furthermore, he seems to have invented a character for himself to play, a character with a long and convoluted history involving at least three different countries, and he eventually succumbed to madness. He terrorized a woman by tying her up, shaving her head, and painting her. After that he was committed, vowed revenge, and committed suicide while trying to burn up his neighbors. Horror movies have been made using less promising material.
