Trivia:

During the docks scene near the start of the film, the boom pole was blown off the docks and into the ocean next to it. Russ quickly removed the mic from the ocean, and saved the Sennheiser, but a power adapter was destroyed in his haste. The result was that the entire scene was shot MOS on the Fourth of July 2000, and had to be not only ADR-ed later, but during post, the 3 actors had to be lip read by an editor Natasha and she timed and recorded her female voice for looping during the ADR process.

The worst movie I've seen in a long time

I bought this movie on DVD on a bargain today, but even paying 1 Euro for it was way too much. It's not the lack of funds that made this movie a terrible experience for me to watch. Bad camera-work and awful sound are only minor annoyances compared to the two major issues with what's wrong with this movie. First it's the acting. At some points in this movie I was really convinced that the actors were deliberately screwing things up. I mean, any mediocre high school stage play has better acting than what's shown by the actors in this production. Were the actors maybe convinced during the shooting that absolutely nobody would be watching the movie later on? The second point that makes this movie worse than just a waste of time is the plot, or better said the lack of any plot at all. Basically, the movie is about some youngsters hanging around with snowboards and stealing cars. After watching this movie for a quarter of an hour, I already knew - who cares what happens next? Please, ignore this movie at any cost, truly I haven't seen as bad as this in a long time.
