Bad Trip

In a sun‑baked stretch of Florida, two ordinary guys decide that a mundane life isn’t enough—so they grab a car, set a camera in the backseat, and hit the open road. The film plays like a hidden‑camera documentary, letting real reactions to their over‑the‑top antics color every mile. The world feels simultaneously familiar and absurd, a cross‑country playground where every diner, gas station, and roadside attraction becomes a stage for spontaneous comedy. The tone is unapologetically wild, blending the awkward charm of a first‑time traveler with the razor‑sharp edge of improv, promising laugh‑after‑laugh as strangers are drawn into the chaos.

Chris Carey is the earnest, wide‑eyed dreamer whose heart is forever tangled in unspoken crushes and half‑formed schemes. By his side, Bud Malone is the steady, if sometimes reluctant, sidekick whose dry wit balances Chris’s boundless optimism. Their friendship fuels the journey: Chris’s willingness to jump headfirst into ridiculous situations meets Bud’s habit of keeping one foot on the ground, creating a comedic push‑and‑pull that feels both relatable and explosively unpredictable. Together they set out not just to see new places, but to capture the unfiltered, unscripted moments that make every encounter a potential punchline.

As the highway stretches ahead, the hidden lenses become witnesses to a cascade of bizarre encounters—from bewildered locals to unsuspecting tourists—all reacting to the duo’s increasingly daring stunts. The film revels in the chemistry of strangers forced into absurdity, letting humor rise from the tension between scripted intent and real‑world response. With each kilometer, the road trip becomes a living laboratory for improvisational comedy, promising an ever‑escalating whirlwind of laughter that leaves the audience eager to see just how far two friends can push the limits of spontaneity.
