 METROPOLIS ACL PRODUCTIONS / CABRINHA Elliot Leboe, creator of the hugely popular movie Ten4, was commissioned by boss Pete Cabrinha to sort their video for the year. The production quality is the first thing that hits you in the intro, with an awesome, growling techno track that links grungy footage of industrial muscle with slider riding from Andre Phillip and stylish travelogue airport scenes. Seriously, this movie is worth it just for the four minute intro! The whole production exudes taste and style throughout, as you’d expect from a producer of Leboe’s calibre. A varied soundtrack spices up a couple of the slower sections and climaxes in one of the worst wipe-out sections on film at the Antigua slider park. Awesome.
