Worst movie ever made? This has to be one of the worst films ever made. Certainly the worst "horror" film ever produced.
**There are no plot spoilers in this review, as there is no plot in the movie, by the way** If this would be a true story, the three protagonists would deserve to die, as their survival instincts are so slim that they would be doing humanity a favour by deleting themselves from the gene pool. Therefore the only "suspense" of the film - will any of them survive - is rendered useless as you actually hope they all expire, as soon as possible.
Had our ancestors been as thick as the hapless trio (who find themselves "trapped" in an unlocked ATM booth, surrounded by acres of space in which to escape to from one solitary man) the world would really be the planet of the apes - as humans would have long ago been wiped out by, say, the unfathomable riddle that is negotiating pulling on a shirt without strangling yourself.
According to a number of websites, the budget for this movie was US$3m. I have no idea what they spent the money on. The entire, horrible mess takes place in an ATM booth in the middle of a deserted parking lot. Filmed outside business hours. In the dark. There are no special effects. No spectaculars. No stunts. The credits only include 12 actors - three of which have more than 10 lines.
As for the man who spent the US$3m, I've never heard of director David Brooks before - and it's unlikely that I (or anybody else) will ever hear from him again. His contempt for the audience's intelligence is staggering. As an example of this contempt, he really thinks that people are prepared to believe that a structure such as an ATM booth would be watertight. After he shows us how the doors aren't locked and open at the softest of nudges. Yes, seriously.
If one of your friends recommended this movie to you, delete his/her telephone number of your list and tell them you've moved. And never contact them again. They are either cretins or don't have your interests at heart. Either way, they aren't worth it.
This movie is a pathetic piece of excrement and I have no idea who commissioned it, who approved the script, who chose the director and who sanctioned its release. There must have been a number of opportunities to pull the plug on the "ATM" project during production, but nobody had the guts to do it. Euthanasia was the only option - just as it should have been for the characters in the movie.
