Nick Farrow is a young mid-twenties trust fund baby. He has been with his girlfriend for 9 months too long. The last 6 weeks have been spent trying to "get out" of the relationship.

EIGHT GUYS
What happens when eight guys live in a one person apartment the size of a shoe box, yet they all refuse to leave? You have a stand off of epic proportions!

Directed By: Dane Cook
Written By: Dane Cook
Credited Cast:

In a flash of idiocy Dane comes up with a simple yet brutal contest. The first seven guys to get phone calls are going to have to vacate the apartment! Last one remaining inherits the residence and all the stuff in it.

Dane, Alonzo, Jay, Robert, Rusty, John, Gary and Wayne wake up on “Judgement Day” with one thing on their minds. Staying put. But as soon as that phone starts ringing, hearts begin racing. Like gunslingers they surround the phone sizing each other up.

The answering machine picks up. Their outgoing message plays. “No one is here leave a message or you suck!” BEEEEEEEEEEEP!

Who will win this bloodbath? Which one of the eight guys will proclaim victory? Who will leave in handcuffs? What is that stain on the couch? Who really cares? You will, once you start watching. Because once you’re in you won't want to GET OUT!

From other sites, here are some of the comments about this Documentary:
"...Solomita's film captures a truly edgy, special time during Boston's golden years of comedy... It was faster and louder than any place in the country... seeing the candid interviews and rare footage is as rewarding as it is hilarious."
- Katie Johnston, The Boston Globe

"A tale told with a ton of heart chronicling the epic rise and fall of the country's celebrated comedy hot spot loaded with authentic talent. This was a grassroots scene of intense vitality and integrity, with classic, in-your-face comedy that could only happen here. Solomita emphasizes the camaraderie without mawkishness, showing long drives to out of town gigs, sometimes 4 or 5 comedians to a car, documented with a hilarious front seat exchange about where to stop for booze... The lights came up to a rousing applause."
- Robin Vaughan, Boston Herald

"An irreverent documentary that is a combination of objective history and personal journey, packing in priceless onstage clips and injecting authentic mood with a vintage soundtrack. The legacy of this intense Boston comedy scene of the 1980s is still felt today."
- Paul Sherman, Improper Bostonian
