Movie Reviews of PARTY MONSTER DISCO BALL BOX ART
Movie Review: Party Monster (Michael Alig) Obsessed
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of the most interesting movies I have ever seen. I live in Indiana so you know they aren't going to show it here regardless of the fact that Michael Alig is from South Bend. I went to California and on the top of my agenda was to find out where this was playing and I was lucky enough to actually see it. Believe me, I was not disappointed! McCauley Culkin did an awesome job and made a tremendous choice for a comeback. (I like anyone who is willing to take a risk.) And Seth Green was a riot. Two of my favorite actors in the same film. The rest of the cast was great too and whoever did the casting was either a genious or really lucky.
I wanted to make a comment regarding the fact that alot of people are upset that there were no "gay" scenes in the movie. I didn't feel that this movie was about a gay relationship. It was a movie about a murder. A cold-blooded murder that was committed by someone that everyone still wants to meet and be friends with. I think the directors did a magnificent job in getting that feel out and getting that message across to everyone.
I am looking forward to owning my own personal copy in February.
PS. I already own the book, the soundtrack and the documentary. I suggest getting them all.
Summary of PARTY MONSTER DISCO BALL BOX ART
Party Monster is a curiosity: a fictional version of events already covered in documentary form (see Party Monster: The Shockumentary) by this film's co-directors, Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato, best known for The Eyes of Tammy Faye. Party Monster, theatrically released in 2003, also signals the return of Macaulay Culkin to films after a long absence. Culkin plays 1980s club kid-turned-killer Michael Alig, a small-town boy who arrives in New York in search of reinvention on the Ecstasy-fueled party scene. Alig ascends from rube to ringmaster, organizing Fabulous happenings and anointing, in Warhol-like fashion, various transvestites and studly naifs the era's new superstars. Seth Green plays Alig's arch but more reticent co-conspirator and roommate, James St. James. Green is more grounded in character than Culkin, though neither actor is convincing as a deluded drag queen. Despite interesting material, the directors never reveal what makes Alig a compelling figure in Manhattan's social history. --Tom Keogh
