(More customer reviews)While certainly low budget and not for the faint of heart, "Elevator Movie" certainly possesses its own unique élan vital for the thinking person. One cannot help but admire the raw existentialist nerve that runs through the pithy, often-very-funny dialog.

Do not miss out on this Sartre meets "The Twilight Zone" experience. Highly recommended.

Lana on the other hand desperately wants to escape, and clings to her faith in God to provide them with an opening of the elevator doors. Eventually, a reluctant and desperate romance begins--
