On their first summer back from college, a group of friends aim for an epic night of drugs and partying but Curtis’ lingering crush on an ex-girlfriend complicates the picture. “Crocodile Dose” is a hilariously hyperactive Gen-Z comedy feature that offers a non-stop extravaganza of digital stimulation. The single-minded Jimmy is on the prowl for alcohol, drugs, and girls for tonight’s big party. His best friend, Curtis, however is in the midst of a heartbreak and can’t move on past his feelings for Jane. When the heady Abe enters the picture with his strange ability to acquire the aforementioned essentials, the scene is set. Though it may sound like a formulaic teen comedy, the film is strikingly original in its details and free-for-all energy barreling through local theme parks, mansions, karaoke joints, and thrift stores. Nearly a wall-to-wall montage, the film is crammed with on-screen texts, social media profiles, maps, constantly shifting compositions, split screens, dissolves, overlays, all set to the tune of a series of pop/emo ballads. If you’re able to access its wavelength, it can be intoxicating, even hysterical. Behold the youth of today—can they survive the night with their friendships and sanity intact? -KA. Directors: Jason Waters, Graham Cox, Chase Mackay. Cast: Chase Mackay, Graham Cox, Jason Waters, Avery Boggs, Owen Broghammer, Charlotte Hearn. DP: Jason Waters, Miller Chetwynd. Editor: Tucker Bennett.
