Believe (2007)
It's about time a Multi-Level Marketing spoof was made!
This is a funny little flick, made in mockumentary style ( alla Spinal Tap and Best of Show. If you have ever been into, or approached by people from Amway or any other MLM, you need to see this movie. It will crack you up, ( or make you mad... This move could be about you :)
This movie is based on a a company called "Believe Industries" and follows some of its MLM'ers as they try to recruit their neighbors. As a local steel mill lays off workers, the MLM'ers pounce on them to show them how they can, "Become independently wealthy in 5 years".
It has some funny stuff about an "ex-Believer" who has an anti-MLM website.It also shows some street interviews about what people think of MLM's, which I think are real people, (not actors).
Funny show, check it out.
The Last Way Out (1997)
A step in the right direction.
This "film" is interesting in that it was shot on video and is presented in black and white.The videography looked good, however, and it did not get in the way of the story. It has a film noir feel and reminds me of something I would watch on late night television, mostly due to the limited foley sound, probably a style and budget choice. I caught myself guessing what would happen next, as if I could guess the whole plot line, which is a sign that my interest was held throughout the film. It was good to see an independent film that focused on the story line and used what was available to the filmmaker to tell the story. This is not a high budget film, but it is a step in the right direction for small, shoestring production companies.
