This movie features the collaborative directorial efforts of four new filmmakers, each of whom directs a segment of this comedy. It's New Year's Eve at the Mon Signor Hotel, a former grand old Hollywood hotel, now fallen upon hard times. Often using physical comedy and sight gags, this movie chronicles the slapstick misadventures of Ted, the Bellhop. He's on his first night on the job, when he's asked to help out a coven of witches in the Honeymoon Suite. Things only get worse when he delivers ice to the wrong room and ends up in a domestic argument at a really bad time. Next, he foolishly agrees to watch a gangster's kids for him while he's away. Finally, he finishes off the night refereeing a ghastly wager.

Margaret:
Hi, Ted. I'm Margaret. You sound down. Is your New Year's not starting off well?
Ted the Bellhop:
No, Margaret. This New Year's Eve is not starting off well! This one is going pretty fucking badly!
Margaret:
How come?
Ted the Bellhop:
Well, Betty leaves me to run this entire hotel by myself. And first thing, right off the bat, I get fucked by a coven of witches!
Margaret:
You got fucked by an oven full of witches?
Ted the Bellhop:
A *coven* of *witches*! Well, one witch in particular!
Margaret:
Ted, was she an old hag with a mole on her face with hair growing out of it?
[takes a hit from her bong]
Ted the Bellhop:
No, no, no, she was very beautiful.
Margaret:
[coughs] Ted... what's the problem?
Ted the Bellhop:
Well... admittedly, that was the best part of the evening. It was pretty bloody good, actually... but it's still a pretty unnerving way to start off the night!
Margaret:
Sounds like a pretty great way to start off the night to me.
Ted the Bellhop:
Why don't we just skip over the witches?
Margaret:
Skipping the witches...
Crew or equipment visible: When Ted is talking on the telephone to Margaret, someone is clearly seen walking behind Ted. This couldn't be another bellhop or hotel staff, as Ted is the only person working that night.

With more than a million titles, it isn't feasible to handpick recommendations for every film. That's why we came up with a formula to suggest titles that fit along with the selected one. The formula uses factors such as user votes, genre and keywords to generate an automatic response. The system produces relevant results most of the time but since recommended titles are not manually chosen, occasionally they may include less than perfect matches.
