Belushi's Toilet

"Belushi's Toilet" is a brilliantly conceived film set in a near-term future in which the war on drugs has finally been declared a loss; everything and anything is now legal. On the low-down, pharmaceutical company brew master Mason responds to those conditions by attempting to craft the ultimate drug experience. It'll require human testing, so for the greater good, Mason and his mates step in to fill the traditional role of lab rats.

It's a fantastic and unexplored premise made fully realized by great storytelling, as "Belushi's Toilet" shrewdly avoids the trap of taking sides and moralizing, and instead projects this free-form world of all-legal drugs as a logical inevitability of existing trends.

Melding science fiction with our love of drug culture explorations, "Belushi's Toilet" offers the best of both worlds by creating one that's entirely its own.

Just had the pleasure of watching this film. Outstanding! Well shot well acted amazing retro soundtrack. Know alot of people involved in that side and great to hear on a feature film. Some really funny bits as well. Love some of the props. The finger on the stick is my favourite. I want one. Think a bit of a cult classic here Super stuff.

What a strange but engaging film. I found myself immediately drawn to the main characters in their search for the perfect drug. So many comments on our society strung throughout the film, and many times I wanted to stop the film to write down some of what I'd called quotables... (I will view the film again to capture these). It had some queasy moments, but since they made sense to the plot, it was tolerable (I tend to have a weak stomach)... Loved the shots of Toronto, too. Made the film seem all the more real. Memorable flick!

Andrew Wright has created a very original piece of film making, anchored with highly creative screenwriting, solid acting, and excellent work behind the camera (big shout out to DOP Voitek Pendrak) and in visual effects, not to mention his eclectic soundtrack (including EDM tracks Wright wrote himself). This little gem will take you on a continuous, drug-infused trip (make that multiple trips), interspersed with several dark humor moments, and under a sci-fi/futuristic umbrella. It's a fine testament to what you can achieve when you have a dream and a vision, even when working with a tiny budget, and a reminder to everyone to support independent filmmakers and what they can bring to enrich our cultural lives.

Well what can I say, this is a vision of the future. Loved it.
