So pretentious it stinks from the screen, "The Blue Tooth Virgin" is a stillborn experiment in screenwriting 101.
One-man-show Russell Brown (he writes, produces, and directs) records stagy discussions of the screenwriting idiom between bromance buddies Sam (Austin Peck) and David (Bryce Johnson).
Sam is an out-of-work entertainment writer–he had a popular TV series called "Cat's Paw Print" — working on a "character-driven" script that David thinks is complete garbage but can barely bring himself to tell Sam.
"The Blue Tooth Virgin" bears all the marks of a navel-gazing attempt at drawing attention to an unrepentant void of mediocrity.
Karen Black is squandered in one truly pathetic scene where she plays a New Age therapist to rich artsy-fartsy types like Sam.
"The Blue Tooth Virgin" is more of a skeleton of a movie than ghost.
It certainly won't haunt you, or anybody else.
Rated R. 79 mins.
