Posted under: review tad
This had to be the most anticipated film at the entire festival, it was also the most packed. I actually had someone sitting to my right, and Lolita from Texas sitting to my left. Cool name eh? (I put that eh in there for you canucks, wait is that PC? Ahh who cares) Poultrygeist is a Troma film and Lloyd Kaufman himself was there to introduce it and do a Q&A afterwards. When we rolled in, he was standing there with two tromettes looking all pretty, giving autographs and such, he's a cool guy.
On to the movie. Just like you see in the trailer it revolves around Arbie who's girlfriend goes off to College but he can't. He has to stay home and take care of his parents, but 6 months later she's back in Tromaville protesting the new American Chicken Bunker which was built on sacred Native American burial land. Also with her is another member of her group, a lipstick liberal lesbian, which is her girlfriend, and a huge crowd. Throughout all this we get many references to what Lloyd calls "Limousine liberals" like drinking starbucks. They want ACB to go down, and Arbie can't get Wendy back so he takes a job there in some twisted attempt to win her. He has a bunch of stereotype co-workers including the funniest of the lot which is a female muslim whom they keep making terrorist references too. The first customer turns out to be Jared of Subway fame, but he is huge. Follow him into the bathroom, and well it's Troma, you can guess from there. The "Colonel" shows up and he is former? KKK, anyways there are all these glowing pulsating eggs around and eventually some chickens get out and turn the people into zombie chickens and oh, did I mention this was a musical? The songs were hilarious! The acting was great, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The crowd clearly did, more so then I. There's alot more Troma fans then I thought. I give this a solid 7 out of 10, but it's not for the squeamish, if you don't like South Park, don't watch this. It was very very vulgar.
Afterwards they played a karaoke disc (of all things) with the theme song from Poultrygeist and not a single person sang. In retrospect, it's hilarious. Lloyd rolls up with the Toxic dude and one of the tromettes and talks about the film. It took 3 years to make, a year to write the script, 6 months to shoot, and the rest in post. He kept making a lot of jokes, like when he got his nose bit off in the movie he said he was no longer a jew. He also said he was a drunk and had a foot fetish, but then again sometimes it hard to tell if he's joking or not. Anyways I kind of have a shoe fetish, shhhhhh, don't tell anyone. Hahahah.
That's the end of TAD coverage, I've spent enough money I don't have, going home tomorrow! PEACE!
