Description: 16-year-old Ronald Wilby accidentally kills his classmate and his mother decides to take his son from the police in the secret room of the building. Police and neighbors continue the search Ronald. It takes a lot of time, but one day his mother returns home and the guy in the beginning of a serious mental problems…
Review: “Bad Ronald” is neither a horror film or a thriller. He’s not scary, it makes a lot of things to think about. After all, this is the Ronald – not a villain, but an ordinary man, whose share fell to a serious test. You can not say that he is a murderer – he was not killed on purpose. He just wanted the girl to apologize for his insults.
Ronald was a victim of circumstances. He did not know what to do, grabbed the girl and started to shake. It was brought to rabies, and it’s because of his temper. However, in the house for a very long time, he patiently waited. Having managed to suppress my temper this, he achieved more of what you would expect. But after a while he could not resist. You can not blame him, because no one would have survived such an ordeal.

I really, truly thought that this was LOST TO TIME, and would never be seen again. THANK YOU!!! I actually DID catch this on “THE ABC LATE NIGHT MOVIE” in ’74 (it aired on a Thursday night). It was kinda creepy (Scott Jacoby’s Ronald hiding under the stairs and all). Now, I finally get to see it again after all this time, and it’s a pleasure. They don’t make TV-Movies anymore, and it’s a shame, because some (like THIS ONE) were downright creative.
