Two guys, a case of beer, a rubber mask and a Hi8 camera came together one night in a maelstrom of drunken hi-jinx to put together a world renowned short film masterpiece which catapulted a young would be filmmaker into a new visionary of independent film. Nobody is saying that Joe Franks and his first feature film "Survival" are the next best thing since sliced bread. But one can not deny the heart, blood and sweat that went into the making of this VERY low budget and time constrained production by all those involved in its making. How many would be filmmakers actually succeed in pulling off a project like this, and how many get discouraged during production and call it quits. I applaud the entire crew for their works. And to add a little icing to the cake, the movie is actually pretty good! I'm no movie critic, at least not until EW calls me back, but I have seen Hollywood rim the toilet and drop some crap into our laps that would make "Survival" seem like "Forrest Gump." Keep an open mind and give it a chance and I think you will be pleasantly surprised by the fun that can be had watching this film.
