FILM 1776: THE BAD BATCH



FILM 1776: THE BAD BATCH 

TRIVIA: No soundstage work here. The entire film was filmed in extreme locations, and primarily outdoors in high heat.

Jim Carrey's first film role in which he never speaks.

Most of the extras hired were from Slab City, the same California community Chris McCandless visits in Into The Wild (2007). Most of the "Slabbers" came as is, not needing costumes or make-up.

Miami Man's Bad Batch tattoo can be partially seen during a conversation in the desert. It clearly shows only two digits after the BB meaning he's one of the first 99 to be exiled.

Shot in 28 days.
