$4.95A comfortable underachiever and serial prankster, in the midst of their quarter life crisis, reunite against childhood enemies in a contemporary suburban epic.
A bittersweet fairytale “hangover of the coming of age” story, The Book of Caleb plays as a quirky and tender study of the quarter-life crisis.
When unfocused wanderer Caleb Callahan (Jeremy Luno) returns home to suburban Bucks County, Pennsylvania and reunites with childhood friends Montag (Michael Hampton) and Swank (Nikitas Manikatos), he finds himself swept into a dangerous anti-adulthood highlighted with overblown enemies and high concept pranks.
Love interest Cole (Mackenzie Firgens) somewhat grounds Caleb, but as the stakes get higher for the man-boy to stand up for his beliefs against the comic tyranny of real estate mogul James Paddington (Paul Gleason) and off-kilter Officer Scar (Jeff Berg), Caleb finds all his stability pulled out from under him, the questions of his existence diminished to those of friendship, loyalty and righteousness.

The entire film was produced from the basement of the director's parents' home.
The Book of Caleb is the final on-screen appearance of Paul Gleason.
In the scene with Tanner throwing water-balloons and vomiting all over him, the vomit is real.
