SPEEDBAIT
A 48 HOUR FILM
Milton meets 3 interesting women while speed dating.
Our 2nd 48 hour flick of the summer, in collaboration with (and under the name) ScrewUp TV Productions, for the August 2019 Charlotte 48 Hour Film Project, was Speedbait.
We took home the award for Best Use of Line of Dialogue! It was a very big deal and when we didn't win any other awards, the crowd started booing and demanding a recount. We have not seen the organizer since then; he is likely dead.
Despite all of the pitchforks, fires, and general outrage in the city following the awards ceremony, we had an awesome time making this film.
