Walter Rhum, an amateur skateboarder, realizes his dream of turning pro and riding for the world's greatest skateboard company, Machotaildrop. Set in an anachronistic time and place, Machotaildrop is the greatest skateboard company of its day and the regal and grand sport of skateboarding has been thriving for many generations. Walter's journey serves as a window through which we discover the dark underbelly of what appears at first to be a benign skateboard company.
I attended the Word Premiere of "Machotaildrop" at the 2009 Toronto International Film Festival. It was easily one of the trippiest films I've ever seen. Even the filmmakers admitted in response to my Q&A question that it was definitely, to some extent, a drug-induced story (based on past memories, of course). 18-year-old newcomer Anthony Amedori carries the film from opening to closing credits. If you're a skateboarder or fan of total freakshow films (or the classic British series "The Prisoner" ) "Machotaildrop" is the movie for you. It was an extremely enjoyable film and a laugh a minute.
I also chose the film as one of my 8 Top Picks out of 30 films I saw.
