The fine folks at Everything is Terrible had a screening in Chicago last night that I attended. The big event of the evening was a viewing of the 1993 direct-to-video crapsterpiece Arcade, starring that kid from A Christmas Story, Seth Green, and Q from Star Trek. It was written by The Dark Knight scribe David S. Goyer, proving that you gotta start somewhere. I left sometime before the climax - for a movie that's only 85 minutes long, it sure feels longer.
But I come to praise Everything is Terrible, not to bury it. They showed some clips at the beginning of the night that are more exemplary of their found footage ouvre. In my opinion, the highlight was the montage of informercials, but you can't go wrong with this series of clips from a film awesomely-titled Stunt Rock.
