Yeah yeah yeah he has cigars, but what does his business cards look like?

Ghouls just want to have fun.

I love the story, but I love that it was set in the 80's even more.

“We all wear masks, and the time comes when we cannot remove them without removing some of our own skin.”

Lloyd thought he could buy friends and happiness with his money. He came to the realization that in doing so he created a monster (Phillipe), that no one really liked him, not even his wife. They were all there for his money and the good times it bought.

Story of a man ‘seeing’ himself.

"that's an unattractive tone you've got there". Classic

He said "Japanese food" like it was some super expensive stuff but it turns out to be the cheapest kind of sushi you can make :/

Is that voldemorts twin?

I love how it was set in the 80's...

i wonder why a disproportionately large percentage of omeleto films are symbolic, rather than just straightforward drama.

I thought the ghoul was straight up gonna eat someone at the party

Spoiler! I haven't seen it pointed out yet, so I might as well throw it out there. The main character and Felipe are the same person. This is revealed at the end when suddenly there is only one red car - the true reality. Felipe only seems to exist because the story is depicted through the eyes of an unreliable narrator, but I'd wager Felipe is actually an imagined projection of what the protagonist wishes he were... One that is unbeatably cultered in all ways, but as a result devoid of humanity and ugly as a person. In his quest to best Felipe, he only ends up harming himself (by damaging his car), because his nemesis is in fact himself.

Ill try my best to let everyone understand what's happening in short.... Basically he saw his own self unfold to what he wanted to be and hated it so much he wanted to end it and thus in the end he realised this fact. Edit: his other self (Felipe) is a representation of his greed

So...nobody's going to talk about how that ghoul has some moves 🕺

What he wanted to be seen as, was personified in his mind. Basically he saw himself as the other person and hated it. May be this is The Imposter syndrome

What I understand is that Felipe is him before he became rich and obsessed with fame and that shows that people loved him for what he is not for his money , and his hate for his old self made him see it that ugly

An ancient proverb: 'There's no such thing as an ugly, rich bloke'.

It's funny that he doesn't want germans at his party yet he has a Porsche

I have been around such insecure, self-absorbed narcissists all my iife. They need constant adoration and will give it to themselves if they do not receive it. My take is that here comes a guy who he thinks does not measure up and is livid when people like and respect the "ghoul" more than they respect him.

I think I get it. It's called "Green Eyed". Green as in jealousy. He was a rich man with everything you ever wanted. When someone better than him came along, instead of embracing that person as a friend, he saw a monster who came to destroy him and his glory.

That's one cool ghoul. He's got all the best dance moves.

The only way he can appreciate who he is is by imagining how others see him. At some point then he becomes them and finally realizes who he is.

I didn't get this until i remembered green eyed means to act out of character because of jealousy

8:35 he let him drive home completely drunk? 'Perhaps your wife should drive?' Um..apparently not, Anyone else question that?

That was mad warped.. leaving me wanting more.. I love everything you guys do.. can't wait for the next!!

The all devouring enemies of this world...lust, anger, greed, envy, madness and illusion. We must be careful how and what we desire lest we become it. I quite enjoyed that..thank you.

when Dennis grins, he looks like an extra evil Chris Hemsworth ^^

Whenever I've been replaced in a relationship... the new guy looks like Philippe... (even if he doesn't really.)

i feel so bad for arthur. he was treated so bad :(

First and last time I ever ate Sushi was on a Greyhound bus from the hands of a Korean couple. God bless those hands. I'll never forget that couple.

Man I just hate it when a *ghoul* joins my social circle

2:09 That sushi looks awful. How is the cucumber or avocado so shrunk? did they leave it out for 10 days?

When a narcissist doesn't phase you, they self implode lol!

Dude that thing looks way too creepy

Greed is an ugly thing 😏

These vids are excellent. Some of them remind me of Black Mirror.

Love that it's set in the 80s. Never gonna die

Omg we found Voldemorts long lost twin XD

This GHOUL presence represents that theres definitely a huge amount of LIES and SCAMS behind this guys FORTUNE 😐

I hope no air cooled 911s were injured in the making if this film.

Omeleto from were do u get all of these crazy sad drama vids?? XD

Hil- la- ri- ous!!!! I laughed my ass off. Loved it.

I recognize the blonde from Hemlocke Grove and The Vampire Diaries. She’s a good actress. Her name is Penelope Mitchell I believe.

Reminds me of Fightclub

This is hilarious. He is seen as a ghoul bc he is a threat. We hear no words from the Ghoul's mouth bc whatever the says would be meaningless to Lloyd other than Lloyd's desire to one up him to stay ahead in the social / influence/ prestige circle. Sometimes some people will literally see you as ugly bc you represent a threat to their norms, status or desired status projectory. On the other end it can be very hard to manage when a person of influence or set of people of influence view you as the foe. You have to learn how to deftly navigate the situation without breaking often unspoken codes you may not necessarily be acquainted with. undoubtedly one or more may set a 'trap' in hopes to see you drown. Or perhaps as others have stated the ghoul is actually himself

Love the lady’s hair lounging by the pool!

Ok... this is my theory: Phillipe is not just one man. Phillipe is several men. We only hear the name “Phillipe” and we only see the same face, as does the main character. “Green Eyed” the main character is envious jealous of all those men Towards the end consumed with jealousy he starts to fantasise about killing “Phillipe... therefore a distortion of reality & imagination. - we are watching the scenes through someone elses Green Eyes... (the main character) it’s his perspective

The disgust in his face is hilarious. I dont think i felt like that toward another. But Felipe looks like a nicely dressed alien. I cant blame the guy for being freaked out alittle but his attitude isnt ok. Now i think about it maybe the way he looks at him is how i view my ex 😂😂😅

Envy & Jealousy. The Green Eyed Monsters.

OH! I get it! HE was the ghoul! Wow, very cool! This is an important message told in a completely creative way.

Envy and jealousy makes us into our own ghoulish selves.

“If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.”

Philippe was the perfect name 🤣🤣🤣

Only the rich can afford that premium lung cancer

Philippe is so cool- I mean Ghoul. Clothes, car, chicks, style and sophistication. He should audition for the next James Bond.

Phillipe is a good dancer.

That cute little cigar at the end 😂

Never in my life have I seen such an intense game of tennis.

The most impressive part of this was that the filmmakers were able to get actual wooden tennis rackets. Seriously, though, this was a pleasant surprise. I was afraid it was going to turn into some heavy-handed morality tale, but it turned out to have a much lighter (and funnier) touch.

Hated this guy so much in the first 60 seconds, I don't even care about his existential crisis or what he learned, I had to turn it off.

Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. But, then again, doesn't everybody want a ghoulfriend?!

Glad that Rupert Murdoch is still in Australia's big league circles

Well , that was certainly different ! Jealousy is a dangerous mistress .

Omeleto.....the home of great production values, great acting, gorgeous girls and fine husky men...who often fail in some way. Keep 'em comin'!

Let's see Paul Allen's Dominican cigars

There is definitely a full length film here, good lord. The possibilities..... Very well done Omelete, very impressive. Love the 80's synthwave soundtrack too. Classic analog

This is my interpretation of it. What if that strange looking dude is someone better than him and he got jealous. When he thought he killed that dude in the end, somehow that dude came back. What if the end signifies that there will always be someone better than you (i guess socially, intellectually, etc) even when you try to get rid of that someone.

Moral of the story: when you got it you got it...

We see who we are. We see in others what we hate in ourselves.

The sfx make-up for Phillipe is just incredible, it's flawless

THE GHOUL IS HIS DISGUSTING SIDE, I KILLED MY GHOUL IN '99.

Envy and Ego (the hallmark of the 80s) ... If you look into the abyss beware what you might find.

Yuppie stands for young urban professional

I guess the way for an ambitious yuppie to be successful is to be ghoul oriented.

What that ghoul is doing around all those smoothskins is beyond me

Love this and setting in past era was really well done too love the 80s feel Some neat comments here Best one I read the only crisis a yuppie has is someone showing him up. Lots of different takes on this are in comments and all are really good ideas! Pretty cool we can watch the same thing and take it alll different ways and seem correct each time lol I love it!

This film is absolutely marvelous. A thought-provoking message beautifully filmed. 👏🏻👍🏻❤️🎞

As I’m almost as ugly as Phillipe I have often had narcissistic twats trying to humiliate me. I’m pleased to say all my children have taken after their mothers who are good looking woman.

Your compliment was sufficient Lewis...

Ghouls just wanna have fun!

That would be me on a Monday morning before 10 am ... Without the porche, off course.

That guy hots the bag like a new born chimp😅😂😂

He finally saw himself in the mirror and what he saw was truly grotesque. He tries to destroy it in the end but is it too late? I definitely like the setting.

I used to have one of those phones..... Dang that was a long time ago....

Look at those mountains 😍😍😍

3:05 at least could’ve ironed the suit

The mid to late 80s are back.

I can identify with Phillip but how did Phillip beat him to the house? Oh he is Phillip and he hates himself

OMG that's hilarious! I just got the joke halfway in it's a real-life GHOUL BAHAHAHA

Was it just the one car in the driveway burning at the end? If so the scene should have been shot from a better angle. I wasn't sure if the flames were just obscuring the other car or if it was just one car, since the green eyed monster was him. Thoroughly enjoyable tho.

So there is 1 horcrux left of Voldemort ?

i didn't realize the 80s yuppie culture was world wide

The routine "burned down to the ground factory in 78'" it's been trying to hold up at it's hardest but I'm curious to know since when Dominican cigars out valued Cuban cigars for that matter and expensive sushi? .. dang lol

‘Yeah...that sounds stylish.’ This says a lot about the guy saying it. LUV the red Porsche. 🥴

The music at the end is your own remix of the "Moon", isn't it? I can't find it anywhere.

I disagree with everyone.. thought it just very confusing. So the "ghoul" is himself? How can he play tennis against himself? So he burned his own car? How come three cars parked at the house? Oh.. if he imagined the 3rd car, Omelleta didn't make that clear. No.. i think the theme and premise of this schtick is simply.. "Wall of confusion -- that's what the world is today -- hey, hey!"

Loved it.Great Job guys...Keep 'em coming

Strangely enough, Lloyd was the vile ghoul.
