Overview

A young director intent on making “the greatest color crime movie ever” can’t seem to finish his script—he has a beginning and an end, but he can’t quite figure out the middle. The daughter of his landlord, excited to have a real “movie person” living nearby, tries to help by putting him in touch with a man who wants to collaborate on a script—the strange “Dr. Jolly”

Viewing Notes

Sixth movie of BTSNAT 4, Noah’s pick and possibly the clear winner of the event. Damn. This movie defies categorization. It has elements of mystery, adventure, drama, fantasy, horror. I suggest everyone seek out this film. It’s so good and I’m sure it is even more rewarding on repeat viewings.

Micah tweeted: “CRIME WAVE is an indescribable ultra-meta flick in the vein of RUBBER and FORBIDDEN ZONE. LOVED it.”
