God Bless America (Alternate Version)



God Bless America is a Shot for Shot Remake the 2012 film made in 2015

Plot
Frank Murdoch (Joel Murray) is a middle-aged insurance salesman living in Syracuse, New York, who is sick with how the United States has fallen into a state of rudeness based on pop culture, talk radio, television, and internet influences. After a boring evening of watching television, Frank contemplates killing his rude and inconsiderate neighbors, whose screaming baby mixed in with his own insomnia and chronic migraine headaches give him a lack of peace in his own home. Frank tries to commit suicide, but stops as he watches a reality TV show starring Chloe (Elle Fanning), an extremely spoiled teenager, and has an epiphany. The next day, he steals his neighbors car and drives to Virginia to Chloe's school and, after unsuccessfully attempting to blow up her car with her in it, he shoots her at point-blank range. One of Chloe's classmates, Roxanne "Roxy" Harmon (Tara Lynne Barr), witnesses this and comes to the same realization as Frank. Roxy follows Frank back to his motel where he is once again preparing to commit suicide; Roxy talks him out of it. Frank explains to Roxy that he only wants bad people to die – people who have committed blatant acts of cruelty and stupidity against their fellow man. To alleviate Frank's thoughts of suicide, Roxy suggests they kill Chloe's parents and he agrees. Frank shoots Chloe's father (Larry Miller), and after a brief chase, Roxy stabs her mother (Dorie Barton). Roxy convinces Frank to take her along to keep her away from her drug addict mother and abusive step-father. They then decide to go on the lam, becoming fugitives to continue their killing spree. They visit a movie theater to hide out and watch a documentary about the 1968 My Lai Massacre. During the film, several teenagers enter the nearly empty theater and immediately exhibit obnoxious behavior, talking aloud and on their cell phones. One of them throws popcorn at Frank. Frank and Roxy shoot and kill all but one of them, a girl who Frank thanks for not being rude. Subsequently, they kill several others, including a rude man who double-parks his car, several extremist protesting church members, and Michael Fuller (Regan Burns), a popular but abrasive conservative political television commentator.

During an evening while they're laying low, Roxy suggests to Frank that they move to France and 'go legit', to raise goats and make cheese, and avoid prosecution for the murders they've committed. Frank then calls his doctor to check on a message left for him. The doctor tells him there was mix-up with his MRI results (the image was of another patient), there is no tumor in his brain, and that his headaches are probably just the result of stress or hypertension. Elated that he's not dying, while eating breakfast in the motel diner with Roxy and discussing their travel-to-France plans, Frank is propositioned by a pedophile who believes Roxy is an underage prostitute and Frank her pimp. A bit later, Frank discovers in a TV news report that Roxy's real family and life are far different from what she described; her parents are a typical American mother and father (Andrea Harper and David Mendenhall) living in a middle-class neighborhood, worried about and looking for their daughter. Angry and upset, Frank then ambushes and strangles the pervert (who had earlier insulted him in the diner), as the man is leaving the motel. Frank takes the man's pickup truck and begins to leave, telling Roxy what he saw on the TV. She confesses that she lied to him about her life back home, because she wanted to get away from her bland existence and experience something 'un-normal' in her life. Frank leaves her the car and they split up.

Frank buys an AK-47 assault rifle from an illegal arms dealer (Mike Tristano) and makes his way to Los Angeles. Frank sees another TV news report that shows Roxy back home with her elated parents and that he is wanted for abducting her. Unbeknownst to him, Roxy is not happy to be back home. Frank goes to and gains access into the American Superstarz studio, kills several audience members and one judge, and holds the other judges, contestants, and the audience hostage. As the SWAT team arrives, Roxy also appears and joins Frank on stage, and she apologizes for lying to him. Frank makes a brutally honest speech in front of the TV camera about the ridiculousness and selfishness that is promoted in today's American society and on television. Frank then tells Roxy she is a pretty girl, and they proceed to shoot the judges, contestants and several members of the audience before they are gunned down by the police.
