Antony joins frequent collaborator Scott Phipps to take a deep dive (sans canoe) into a true 1970s
classic, as part of ‘The Stinking Pause’ 10th anniversary celebrations. The making of this film is almost as mind-blowing as the movie itself. Insurance, who needs it?

Enjoy!

The Cahulawassee River valley in Northern Georgia is one of the last natural pristine areas of the
state, which will soon change with the imminent building of a dam on the river, which in turn will flood much of the surrounding land.

As such, four Atlanta city dwellers, alpha male Lewis Medlock, Ed Gentry, Bobby Trippe, and Drew
Ballinger, decide to take a multi-day canoe trip on the river, with only Lewis and Ed having experience in outdoor life. They know going in that the area is
isolated.

Their relatively peaceful trip takes a turn for the worse halfway through with river rapids and unwelcoming locals. The four need to battle their way out of the valley and are asked to do things they never thought possible within themselves…
