Well boys & girls, the title says it all.

Which movie shows a Leica M4-P with a special hybrid RF/Zoom/SLR finder be found?

The movie star does a good job acting as a photog - except the special effects jerks and the not too attentive director and editor destroyed photographic credibility.

Some things are just too priceless to be made up !
 
They must've used a M4P cause it's the quintessential camera-looking camera. But a zoom and SLR finder ?? How would that even work?

I have no idea of the movie, but I'll be curious to find out.
 
Can't guess the movie either but I saw a t-shirt last week with an M6 on the front with a burst of flash coming from the viewfinder :/
 
OK, this is a very obscure movie,

BAD NYC serial murderer movie mystery with a miserable script and sickening horror film death scenes

GOOD with the protagonist hero photographer prominently shooting a Leica M4-P

GREAT well done photography by the DP Jonathan Sela
its like he decided "this may be a crap movie, but I'm doing a great job"

BAD believe it or not, the hero's view thru the M4-P is alternately shown by
a) correctly with framelines and RF image
b) zooming in
c) SLR type focusing

How did b & c pass final edit? someone was asleep approving final cut

BAD the horror film executions will be sickening to many - but it IS a horror film afterall

You can probably find this gem on Amazon Prime and Netflix, among other film channels

THE MIDNIGHT MEAT TRAIN (2008)

Director Ryuhei Kitamura
