Oh my. That does appear to have been shot on a Flip.

Since you seem hell-bent on watching these terrible little films, allow me to share a few secrets about terrible little films:

1) They cannot be sold unless they are 90 minutes long. They are generally made from scripts that are 90 pages long. Unfortunately they are made by people who are incapable of getting all 90 pages on the screen successfully so after the edit, they end up being 75-80 minutes long. They are then padded out with an additional 10-15 minutes of footage so that they can be sold. *Now you understand the pacing problems inherent in tiny, shitty little slasher films.

2) They sell better with nudity in them in most markets. They sell better with zero nudity in them in some markets. As such, the best approach is to add scenes of gratuitous nudity that can be cut around for export to Muslim or Hindu countries.

3) They are generally the labours of love of people who have read Rebel Without a Crew but don't understand that Miramax only made that mistake once. As such they are usually financed by credit cards and their backers are eager to offload any sunk costs they can. As such, they are usually purchased by distribution companies for pennies on the dollar (in this case, Maxim Media.

4) Said distribution companies often recoup considerable expenses by saddling the movies with deliverables that said movies cannot meet, and then billing said movies for the provision of said deliverables. It is entirely possible (and entirely common) for directors and producers to lose money selling to outfits such as these.

5) None of the above should be construed as a defense of terrible cinema. I sit through terrible cinema on a daily basis (am doing so on the other monitor, in fact) but I get paid. Just saying that this stuff shouldn't really be regarded as "movies" per se, more as "film students' debtor's prison."
