I watched this movie while the boards were gone.  I found this movie not funny and even insulting to vegans.  Most of us don't go "off the deep end" and steal from their bosses to donate to every animal sanctuary in existence and adopt far more animals than we can adequately care for.  Most of us certainly do not attack our neighbors who are hunters to show them how it feels to be stalked and attacked.  I'd like to see a movie where a lonely person (doesn't have to be a female) discovers his/her empathy for animals, becomes vegan, joins a vegetarian social group (surely there are some in Los Angeles where "Year of the Dog" took place, there's one in San Antonio, even), makes friends, finds love and becomes a more rounded, much more happy individual.  I think that it could actually be funny.  I think a scene where the vegetarian society goes for a meeting at a restaurant that claims to be veg-friendly and they slowly discover that there is chicken-stock and eggs in their food, could be played for a lot of laughs. 

There's a community theatre in San Antonio that is according to its founder constantly searching for new and unique plays by local playwrites. My DH met him and had a long conversation with him when we were the only two attendees at one of their plays on a Thursday evening when we had to stay over in SA for a function at his job.  My DH has been active in community theatre in the past.  I may see what I can come up with!  Feel free to "pitch me" ideas for funny scenes!
