Night of the Dog

Night of the Dog was hands down the best film at the Palm Beach International Film Festival. The film is filled with original and entertaining humor and witty jokes. The combination of the different story lines was perfect blended. The writing, directing, and acting couldn't have been any better. The Night of the Dog will most likely be screening at many festivals in the future. If you have the opportunity to see this film, then take a trip to the theater and be ready to laugh your tighty whiteys off.

Thanks to "The Six" and their amazing cast for a film that made me laugh so hard it brought tears to my eyes!

Night of the Dog is seriously funny. The irony of the situations and the predicaments these men get into is absolutely hilarious. I'd recommend seeing it to anyone with an appreciation for dark comedy; not to mention a crave for a little mischief. Oh, and if you think your life sucks, I bet money it won't/can't get any worse than the crazy "Emily" situation, The woman and her phone books, or the absolute insane "detective" work done by a man who is determined to discover the truth. There's an array of jealousy, animosity, love, friendship, lust, will, and hot dogs. If that's not enough to make you want to see it, I don't what is!

I went to see this film at the Palm Beach Film Festival last Friday and I had a riotous good time. I laughed throughout the whole thing. I commemorate all six of these "gentlemen" for not only being brilliant writers and directors, but great actors as well. The brilliance of this film came from the fact that originally it was four different films ranging from twenty to thirty minutes long each, and the six managed to splice these movies perfectly together in one hilarious, ensemble movie. The Six truly are the next Broken Lizard, and like BR, they will deliver soon-to-be classic, or cult classic, comedies like SUPER TROOPERS and CLUB DREAD.

I give this movie two thumbs up. WAAAAY UP.

HEHEHEHE.

I also caught this film at the Palm Beach Film Festival. It was very entertaining, and I thought it an outstanding freshman effort. I hope it gets wider release. I can picture this as the next cult film, like "Office Space". Very entertaining. Some of the story lines were uneven, but the acting was superb, and my friend and I laughed the whole way through. Good luck to the filmmakers, and anyone who has a chance to catch this little gem, please do. It will be time well spent.

This movie is really 4 stories about lousy romances, linked by the fact that all the men in the film work together at a movie theater. I don't want to spoil it and go into too much detail, but the funniest one in my opinion was the "phonebook" sequence. And yes, the filmmakers did all work at a "fascist" (their words) movie theater, which acted partly as their inspiration.

Night of the Dog is a night that almost makes me want to get a dog. The writing is such that you almost think it wasn't written, it all flows so smoothly. You think the camera just followed these guys around for the night. The acting substantiates this illusion. Peter Michael Donovan is brilliant as the guy helping out his friend (even if it's not by sleeping with the guy's girlfriend), & Jeremy Catalino brings the terror of a man on the run right up to your face & wags its briefs-clad fear inches from your nose. Eshom Nelms is very believable as the frustrated antenna-ball artist who finds a new career thanks to the next-door neighbors. The drama & surprises keep it exciting while the comedy keeps the surprises pleasant. Not one for the kiddies. Oh, & the original music by Peter Donovan is as catchy as anything you'd hear on The O.C. Look for the alternate ending on the DVD.
