First of all, if you lived in New York City you knew right away that this was a scripted situation. The characters depicted were the types that actual New York taxi drivers WOULD NEVER stop for. Also, the next time you catch a repeat, notice how much light there is inside the taxi cab at night. Just enough light for the 'hidden' camera. Right. And, the actors were so bad that you always caught them looking right into the 'hidden' camera that they were alleged not to know was there. Secondly, nobody talks to a taxi driver that much. The most conversation is "Do you have change?". If you were really a crack head would you have money for a taxi ride? And, would the driver stop to pick you up in the first place?
Everyone looking for the film you can catch it on Starz Encore Drama. I get DirecTV so not sure which channel you might find it on cable, but Starz Encore is a good bet. Cute film. What is it about 80s film culture that makes you warm and fuzzy inside? Also, I remember the locations shot around Toronto, Canada. Very nostalgic because these places are much different now, and a few buildings and stores no longer exist. I believe this was a failed TV pilot. There are a few other Canadian based TV shows I have been searching for that were filmed around this time (early 80s). Night Heat, Friday the 13th, and War of Worlds.
This is what my friends and I were singing through most of the film, and then all the way home. Well, at least we were inspired to song. But that seems to be the only redeeming quality of this film school experiment (gone bad).
In short, the film sucks. It really did seem like we were watching an uninspired film school project. And, it would not get a passing grade. No plot, storyline, or character development -- oh, and no ending or resolution.
And even more important -- No MONSTER. When I go to a monster flick I expect to see..a MONSTER. Not suggested with low budget CGI effects, but very clearly realized on the screen -- A MOVIE MONSTER.
Instead we get a gimmicky camera effect that has been used many times before (and done better) and guaranteed to make you hurl your popcorn (if you're into that), along with every cinematic cliché since GODZILLA was first realized to BLAIR WITCH PROJECT and the 911 TAPES.
The awards should really go to the marketing team. That's where the real genius lies (no pun). A great viral marketing campaign.
