"Gimme ya keys ya cock suckin' mothafucka!!!" - Matt (Matthew Johnson)
Amusing and inventive little comic drama, following pop culture loving nerds Matt & Owen as they shoot an homemade movie in their school. Its originally intended to be a piece about getting revenge on the bullies. Only their fun little romp gets progressively darker when Matt decides to take the term 'shooting a picture' seriously.
Not as profound a statement on school shootings as I'd expected from the hype (to be honest I thought it worked better as a statement on people losing their personas, due to being constantly bombarded by pop culture influences). But that said its still a real achievement in putting the current trend of mockdoc/found footage to worthwhile use. Ohh and its a damned fun ride for us movie geeks who'll have a ball with all the little gags.
[Personal Reasons For Remembering]
Laughing my balls off at the teachers reaction to their first edit, then telling them they need a re-edit for the pg13 market. Ohh and I guarantee you'll sit through the end credits with huge smiles.
