Passenger: "Stop the truck!" Truck driver: "I can't. I've got an earthquake on my tail!". Good writing is the foundation of quality cinema. That line perfectly sums up Megafault. It stars the Late Brittney Murphy as Dr. Amy Lane, World Renown Seismologist. Bulls Eye casting . Though rumor has it Brittney Spears was the first choice but she was bald at the time which just didn't seem right. Eric LaSalle plays Boomer. A man who since childhood was a gifted blower upper. Though maybe a bit short on geography and physics. Dr. Lane: "We would have to move the Grand Canyon." Boomer: "Why can't we?" And to fill the role of mature authority figure and mentor, Bruce Davison. Fresh off his record setting run as Willy Lohman in Death of a Salesmen at Larry's Dinner Theater and All you can eat truck stop buffet on route 38, Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Pure casting brilliance. Throw in budget busting special effects by the famed CGI creator that brought you such hits as Pong and Space Invaders and you have it all. Acting, writing and a visual experience that can only be described as astounding. As a footnote, kudos to Megafault for showing once and for all that earthquake faults do indeed chase after moving vehicles.
And I must mention Director David Michael Latt whose deft touch was responsible for this quality production. A budding genius who has brought such classics to the screen as 'Jane White is Sick and Twisted' and 'The 18 Year Old Virgin' (Producer) . Most notably the true 2005 gem, War of the Worlds. Not the hack version thrown on the screen by that Spielberg character. I can only give this classic my highest recommendation. "That, Mr. Cavett, is entertainment!"
