Side Effects
In 2005, the satirical film Side Effects, which Slattery-Moschkau wrote, directed, and co-produced, was released. She has said that the story depicted in the movie, which follows fictional drug rep Karly Hert (Katherine Heigl), is "actually my story" and that she, like Hert, was stunned that experience working as a rep for the cell phone industry and a political science degree were all she needed to become a pharmaceutical sales rep. She has also said that the movie was shot in only 16 ”sleepless, crazy, insane days", and that she regrets having filmed it at so many different locations.
