A bright eyed fresh out of film school kid gathered his friends together and using every resource available to him, they put together a picture!
Well, half of a picture. Life and other things got in the way, and the picture remains unfinished.
But thanks to the wonders of YouTube ( a resource that would've been much appreciated during the making of this movie, had it been around) we can enjoy a few choice bits!
I present to you, Low Cool - Opening and Coming Home!
And The Pencil Dilemma!
There's a third scene, but YouTube is being a dick about the music I use and has it without audio. SO there's that,
Looking back, I definitely had the time of my life when we filmed it, surrounded by my friends who were just as enthusiastic about the prospect of making a movie, and who were willing to give up their time to do it. Great memories sprang forth from the ten days we filmed. (on 16mm, none of this DV that looks better than 16mm that they have nowadays).
One thing, however, is I notice the many flaws and the naivete in the writing. But I was young and didn't understand how the world works. This is learning.
Oh, and one fun fact about this flick and to those who look back at the Kevin Smith era of self financed films: I paid off the final credit card that I maxed out to help fund the flick in 2010.

It was nice to see the ol' Jeep Cherokee parked at the dinner too.
Damn these kids and their new fangled cam-corders and there you-tubes. Back then you had to know what an f-stop was...

I was THERE, man!! That was a crapload of fun to do. And I'm happy to see that Matos is still your property...
Like Jules from Pulp Fiction, I'm forced to pick up itty bitty pieces of brain. Because my dead done exploded.
