History Film / TheAmazingBulk

* AlliterativeName: Dr. Henry "Hank" Howard, the main character.

* NighInvulnerability: The Bulk has this. Normal bullets (either shot by the cops or a random mugger) don't do anything, swords and spears have zero affect, and even when the militiary is shooting missiles at him it doesn't work. Finally, General Darwin has a ''nuke'' dropped on the Bulk, and it ''seems'' like he's dead - [[UnexplainedRecovery only for Hank to emerge and reunite with his wife somehow.]] Finally, Hank and Darwin get into a fight and fall off a ledge, and it seems the Bulk is gone for good, possibly because he was killed in his human-form... but the stinger at the end has him ''reach out from his grave'' and smash Ray in the head, meaning he's somehow ''still'' kicking around.

* ShootingSuperman: You'd think the detectives would realize that the Bulk is bulletproof at some point and call in backup instead of continuing to waste bullets on him for about five minutes.

* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: Neither Dr. Kantlove nor Lolita acknowledge the inexplicable CGI monkey playing with a toy rocket in the control room. Later, on the way to Kantlove's castle, Hank casually walks past a Leprechaun with a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow. The final chase scene tops both of these inexplicable things big time.

* YourSizeMayVary: There is absolutely no coherency about the size of the Bulk.

* GenericDoomsdayVillain: Dr. Kantlove. While General Darwin is motivated by [[GloryHound personal glory]], Kantlove doesn't seen to have any particular reason for any of his exploits.

* MoodDissonance: An instrumental version of the somber, minor-key folk song "When Johnny Comes Marching Home" used as a soundtrack for the [[SoundtrackDissonance wackiest chase scene ever.]]

* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: Hey, doesn't that spacecraft rhythmically inserting and removing a stick-shaped portion of itself into a hole in another spacecraft look sort of like something else? It's kind of subtle. Luckily, the filmmakers understood the audience would have difficulty comprehending this clever gag, so they made the scene go on for [[{{Padding}} three minutes]].

* ImprobableInfantSurvival: During the final chase between Bulk and the military. [[BigLippedAlligatorMoment The kids on the soccer field, as well as all the other characters in the scenes Bulk runs through]], remain unaffected by the explosions being caused.

* BackFromTheDead: [[spoiler: Henry literally rises from his grave as the Bulk when Ray pees on his grave, and promptly bashes his head in as the film ends.]]
* BigBadEnsemble: Dr. Kantlove, and General Darwin. [[spoiler: It turns out that they were working with each other, until Kantlove outlived his usefulness.]]

* CorruptedCharacterCopy: Happens with both the Bulk and Darwin

* DiscOneFinalBoss: After the Bulk kills Kantlove, it's revealed that Darwin is the real BigBad.
* DisneyVillainDeath: General Darwin falls down off the balcony with Henry and they both die.

* DownerEnding: [[spoiler: As laughable as it is, the ending is this. Although the Kantloves both die, Hank is killed in his Bulk-form, and his girlfriend is left mourning his death. [[TheBadGuyWins General Darwin dies as well, but he still basically got what he wanted with Hank's death, given that he never wanted Hank to marry his daughter and ordered him to be killed to begin with.]] [[KickTheDog This leaves Hank's girlfriend with both her boyfriend and her father dead.]] Ray and Lisa, as ineffective as they are, are arguably less corrupt than Darwin and Kantlove, since they merely want to arrest the Bulk for a murder he committed, [[NoGoodDeedGoesUnpunished and their efforts end up with Lisa killed and Ray becoming a depressed and drunken mess by the end of the film.]] Even though the BolivianArmyEnding cuts with the Bulk somehow bursting from his grave, implying Hank is alive, it still results in Ray getting his head smashed, likely killing him as well.]]

* GeneralRipper: General Darwin is an exaggerated example. Goes with GeneralFailure as well; he doesn't seem to mind Dr. Kantlove blowing up the world as he was using him for funding, and only had him killed by the Bulk only because he had no further use for the madman. Most of the destruction from the Bulk are because he wanted the super serum, and had no problems sending his CGI military blowing up everything around them trying to kill the Bulk, including dropping a seemingly unwilling CGI suicide bomber. He seems more concerned with a "deadbeat son-in-law," and accumulating dust in his house; he believes dust bunnies are plotting to take over.

* TheLoinsSleepTonight: General Darwin claims that Dr. Kantlove suffers from erectile dysfunction. He financed Darwin's operations in the hopes that his experiments would lead to a treatment.
* TheManBehindTheMan: It's revealed that Darwin was using Kantlove for his own purposes the entire time.
* MadScientist: Kantlove, obviously.

* ObviouslyEvil: General Darwin is far too openly sinister about his projects. It's no surprise at all that he turns out to be the real BigBad.

* SayMyName: Ray, [[spoiler:after Lisa dies.]]

* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: General Darwin tries to do this to Henry after he got the serum, and after he used Henry to kill Dr. Kantlove, who outlived his usefulness to the General.

* NonhumansLackAttributes: The Bulk, thankfully.

* OffModel: In so many spots that it's difficult to find what's "on model," if at all.

''The Amazing Bulk'' is a movie directed by Lewis Schoenbrun. It takes place in a bizarre green-screen world, where a scientist gets transformed into a bulky purple CGI humanoid. It must be seen to be disbelieved.

* GenericDoomsdayVillain: Dr. Kantlove and General Darwin.

* UnexplainedRecovery: As Wiki/TheOtherWiki so eloquently puts it, "Howard arrives at Darwin's home, having inexplicably survived the bombing."

* GoodPeopleHaveGoodSex: Or the corollary, in this case. According to Darwin, Kantlove has problems with [[TheLoinsSleepTonight erectile dysfunction]].
