The Shaft (2001)
6/10
a VERY guilty pleasure
16 February 2006
Elevators in the Millennium Building (New York's most famous skyscraper??!?) start to act...EVILLY (cue mechanical laughter). Now Mark, an elevator repairman and Jen, a newswoman reporter must join up to figure out how to stop this horizontally challenged hell-spawned elevator. Fortunately the film knows that it's plot is ludicrous to say the least, and decides to play it out with tongue firmly placed in cheek, making the movie run at a good clip. Yes, you DO know that the movie is bad, but strangely that is part of the fun of it and makes the movie far more enjoyable than it really has any right to be. Silly brain-dead dialog, hammy acting, cheesy gore effects and all. But I'd be darned if I didn't enjoy the experience.

My Grade: C+

Eye Candy: Priscilla Hendrickse, and Sasha Woman show breasts & buns as two hookers early in the film
