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.
