bazza101-1 This would have to be the worst movies that I have seen for about 10 yrs. The acting was sooooo bad and flatter then a pan-cake. Special effects where very basic and of primary school standard. Some of the plot line was good though and I feel that if it was given to a professional film maker and script writer and established actors, the movie would have been way much better. Really dont' bother watching this crap.

daveofgray We were having a "best of" and "worst of" New Zealand movie month in our flat. Saw a lot of interesting films but "Event 16" is one that stood out to me. Lumped in with the "bad" NZ films it really didn't belong there with stinkers like "Snakeskin" and "Maiden Voyage." Sure the acting was patchy and the script lost me a few times but I found myself enjoying the ride. It reminded me of the kid/adult made for TV movies of my youth. Like "The Tomorrow People" but with time travel. Hammy acting and mad effects. What did surprise me was to read here that it was a no budget film as it looked quite good on our TV. So maybe not a brilliant film but not as bad as the rating here implies.

cameragod OK first up there is no way I can be impartial as I was the DOP for Event 16. That said I'm really pleased with how it came out. Thank you for all the kind comments about the camera work. Any given Sunday for a year I would be out with Derek and the rest of our small crew getting through the shot lists. It's hard to believe just how well the continuity held up. My lighting kit consisted of whatever I could get that weekend so often I would be trying to recreate what I did a few weeks ago with a completely different set of lights. It was a lot of work but seeing the finished movie, what Derek has done with it makes it all worthwhile. Event 16 is out on DVD now in New Zealand and I have to say it looks good there. Some of the limitations of the DVCam format we shot on don't stand out on the smaller screen. Some people still need a ven diagram to work out what is happening but personally I like a movie that needs a bit of thought. The behind the scenes stuff is good and doing the commentary track was a lot of fun, even if I was suffering from the flue and sounded like I had a broken nose, I think it ads a lot to the Event 16 experience. I hope if you stumble across Event 16 you enjoy the ride for what it is. I'll be checking back in here so if you have any questions feel free to ask them in the forum below.

Monkey One I saw the "World Premiere" at the NZFF too! Event 16 is Pearson's first feature film. It is a low, low-budget sci-fi. This was made on a shoe string with only an insane imagination, devoted friends, cast and crew that were willing to help out. Event 16 should be seen as an example that if you want to make a movie and know how - where there is is a will there is a way.I found the plot a bit complicated but I did enjoy trying to piece together the clues. It held my attention the whole way through. I thought the rain falling and not wetting the car was funny and added to the charm... a director's greatness is not always evident in her/his early films - James Cameron's directorial debut, 'Piranha II: The Spawning', However when you look closely, examine just what Pearson could do with no money and minimal crew; you begin to realize that a true talented filmmaker is at work here.I think that it will become a cult classic. Event 16 works for me because I admire the way at which it was made and unlike most low budget features this is one that I would definitely like to see again.
