Quid Pro Quo Trailer Starring Nick Stahl

A new trailer has just arrived online for a strange little mystery/thriller called Quid Pro Quo starring Nick Stahl (Carnivale, Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines). The concept is a little bit out there; Stahl plays a wheelchair-bound radio reporter who receives an anonymous tip one day that leads him into a strange subculture of able-bodied people who pay to have their limbs amputated. It is the first film written and directed by Carlos Brooks, and the trailer definitely has a noir vibe to it which I kind of dug. Magnolia Pictures will be giving the film a limited theatrical release on June 13th, so keep your eyes open for it. Check out the trailer below.

“Something for Something”? I’m not sure I “get” the title but I agree – it does look interesting and I like Nick Stahl even though I haven’t seen him in much. I’ll definitely have to keep an eye out for this one.
And btw – the trailer’s been removed. Another one can be found here:

Posted by Glen on May 21st, 2008The show lasted only 2 season and was sadly under appreciated.
Rent it.
Agreed, it’s a shame that it ended after only the second season, but it’s still a great watch.
Posted by Sean on May 21st, 2008I don’t mind Nick Stahl, but the premise of this movie is ludicrous.
“who wants to be paralyzed?” I’ll tell you….no one.
Lame.

You may not have heard, but it’s not the middle ages anymore. It’s weird..I know. I just found out too.
