Viewing Notes

The 35mm presentation was an absolute treat. Most (~90%) of the audience had not seen this before which was not surprising (and one of the reasons I love seeing films at CU Boulder). The crowd really enjoyed this batshit movie and gave one of the loudest applauses I’ve heard there. Ofc the film is still not good but viewing it in this setting was great.

Had a long discussion with Jason and a couple other attendees afterwards which was an even bigger highlight. Discussed how this film and others like it have reached cult status, which was already on my mind prior to the screening.

welcome to my cult film list!
