Law & Order: Sport Utility Vehicle (2006)
SUV- V for very funny
Hilarious! Funny dialogue and pretty darn good acting. The blond news reporter reminded me of a younger Christopher Walken. The homeless man had to be an actual homeless man. I think I could actually smell him through my computer. He reminded me of a cross between Robin Williams in Fisher King and Charles Manson. I checked out the SUV web site...pretty cool. It kinda reminds you of an episode of Gilligans Island. Everyone trapped together in a somewhat small space. I almost spit up my brandy when they revealed they jury on top of the SUV. It's definitely something that you can watch a second and third time and find new, funny moments. Where can I send money to that homeless guy?
Hungry (2000)
Being a huge Gilligan's Island fan, Hungry filled my appetite.
Being a huge Gilligan's Island fan, Hungry filled my appetite. The concept of four guys trapped inside a "German tomb"(VW Van) makes me laugh already. I saw this short film at a film festival in New York. It's one of those short films that you wish were a feature-length film. You just want to know more and see more of these four, misfit filmmakers. Normally, scenes inside of vehicles make me crazy. Hungry is definitely the exception. After a minute or two, I felt like I was in the van with them-and liked it! Though some of the dialogue seemed ridiculous and over the top, the actors were so serious and real with their delivery. That made the dialogue even funnier. One of my favorite lines was spoken by this Charles Manson looking guy-named Charlie. When the guys discovered they couldn't get out of the van, he looked around and said something like, "We could be down here without food for days, let's get down to business...who's for dinner." They then proceed to come up with a plan to decide who will be killed and eaten. In a Q&A after the movie, the director said that if he did make a feature length, he might add the "living dead" trying to enter the van during the four guy's dialogue.
