I was checking out Yahoo Movies when I can across this one. The 1-866 number is real, well, it’s a real message service owned and operated by Song Pictures. The documentary style of the movie translates into a “realism” echo. The toll-free narc line, the warning labels. This is Reality TV artificial at its finest. Best In Show, Blair Witch, Cloverdale, its not a totally unique idea, but the execution is impressive nonetheless.
I’m excited, I can’t wait to see what they do next. H.G. Wells would be proud… or is it Orwell that would eat this up?
