Party Monster 2003

Directed by
Fenton Bailey
Randy Barbato

Superstars: Seth Green (Buffy, Austin Powers... he's all over the place), Macaulay Culkin (Home Alone, broadway, RichieRich, MyGirl), Marilyn Manson, Wilmer Valderrama (That 70's show), Dylan McDermott (Three to Tango, The Practice), Natasha Leone (Amerian Pie, Scary Movie) and a billion others.

Documentary. This is the true story of one naughty bad murdering club kid (Michael Alig) and his downward spiral into drugs, parties, and glamour.

Average Joe from Indiana meets underground 80's club scene in New York City.

It's fantastic, it's glamourous, it's sparkly! The music, the lights! Oh the drugs. MMMMM the drugs.

Kid promoter goes from shitty thrown-together-barely-breaking-even raves to extravagant huge parties...EVERYWHERE.

I have found a whole new deep respect for Macaulay Culkin after watching him in this movie. He's extravagant. He's bisexual. He's half naked a lot of the time. He wears more glitter than I'd know what to do with (and we all know I love glitter). My darling Seth Green is just as glamourous and just as poofy. James St. James he is, the man who wrote the book, the man who sent Michael to jail in the first place.

When you're so high, and your ego gets so big... you think you're unstoppable. Untouchable. When Michael started bragging to everyone about murdering his drug dealer no one believed him at first. Hey. With crazy Michael around who knows what's real or fake...it could just be publicity for one of his mega parties. WOOO HOOOO I'M SO THERE! But wait. Dead body alert. Hmmmm......

I give this movie 's of sheer and utter brilliance.

If you don't like sex, drugs, raves, boys in drag and murder, don't bother with this movie.

If you'd like to see Macaulay's sweet ass, sparkly glamtabulous fabulousness, and Marylin Manson's uber (yet brief) comedic character Christina... please see this movie.

I saw a bit of this movie last night while I was flipping channels.
You neglected to mention that Dylan McDermott has an eye patch, like a pirate!!! I think that's a big selling point!

OOPS!
/edit:

Oh yeah! and Dylan Mcdermott has an eyepatch like a friggin' PIRATE! IT'S AWESOME!

Eyepatch.... Macaulay's sweet ass! Who could ask for anything more?
