Hey gang just finished my pass on Tom DeNucci’s script SELF-STORAGE. Original idea, creepy location, excellent tone. Generation gap horror. Slackers vs. War Vets. This one must get made!

Okay so I saw this one last week and it’s been rattling around in my head since. This is a funny movie. Not a very well-made movie. But a very funny movie. I think the secret with this one was that John Cusack, director Steve Pink and everyone else knew what they were making. Something that nobody would take seriously anyway. It’s used as a license to pretty much do whatever the hell they wanted. And they did. And it works like a charm! Rob Corddry and Crispin Glover are the comedic duct tape that holds this jalopy together. There are some other things going on, some of it sublime (a scene where Craig Robinson calls a nine year old girl has to be seen to be believed). There are some major logic problems which seem lazy, even for a time travel movie. Chevy Chase feels crowbarred in. But everything about Lou (Corddry’s character) and a running gag involving a one-armed bellboy (Glover) are absolute comedy gold. One more thing: the soundtrack rawwks! I’m on my wayyy I’m on my wayyyyy HOME SWEET HOME..
