whammy666 My God, this is some pretty good stuff. My fave part is what I am referring to in the summary...which involves a 7 or 8 year old kid, some funny stuff. Anyway this documentary is really interesting. I want to be a filmmaker someday, so this helps a bit. My God, everything they went through to make this film it is crazy. Lloyd is a good guy, and so is Trent...enjoyed watching Lloyd have little fits over script revisions and stuff like that. Fun stuff! You can learn a lot from Lloyd, and his crew. And learn tons of film facts, it is just great. A good fun time. Make sure you watch CITIZEN TOXIE before viewing this, it gives lots of spoilers if you have not seen the film. You can get this in the CITIZEN TOXIE 2 DISC COLLECTOR'S EDITION or the upcoming MAKE YOUR OWN DARN MOVIE boxed set.
MrNefarious Schpadoinkle. This is a great documentary. It's raw and real. It shows the traumatic process of the making of a Troma movie in all its natural glory. I have seen some horrid documentaries,and trust me when I say you will be amazed at how much this one isn't horrid. It's great. I hope to see more documentaries like this soon. I was really happy to get some insight to some of the Troma faces. Such as Joe Fleishaker. I was impressed with his story of his once athletic bodies inability to stop eating like a professional athlete. That man is great. I wish him all the best, as I do also the filmmakers responsible for this great documentary. Thanks.
mdamien13 You think it's easy to make a low budget film? Watch this documentary. Almost as good as the film it's a companion to, this making-of can be watched and appreciated on its own as well. The trials and tribulations experienced by everyone is at the same time hilarious and devastating. Nobody pulls any punches despite the presence of a documentary crew. Troma movies are silly, raunchy, and a lot of fun, but "Apocalypse Soon" takes you behind the scenes to show this is first and foremost a business. Anybody who thinks that independent filmmaking is easy needs to watch this. 5/5.
my_bike This is great. It should have been on HBO instead of project greenlight. This is really funny. We see the real turmoils and troubles one may face while working on a troma film. Some may think it is all goofing around to make another low budget film. Well that is true, but it also deals with the stupidity you might face while trying to make a movie. My favorite scenes have to be when lloyd is telling the 2nd ad how to put the script revisions into the script, and when a 10 year old is pitching a movie idea to lloyd. I laughed really hard with this one. It is great.
