Viewing Notes

Triple Feature event at Portage Theater! A little sad to have this projected off DVD but I’m not even sure prints exist for this film (or the sequels). Arrived just as it started. Having recently seen this I was looking forward to viewing in a theater… oddly even tho I’ve seen this my memory was lacking for whatever reason. Not sure why.

Really fun film to watch with a crowd. The Q&A was great as Henenlotter is a fun guy with honest opinions. That really made the screening special.
