Everything Is Terrible!: The Movie


2009 documentary

Rating: 15/20

Plot: The title says it all.

This doesn't feel as cohesive as its sequel or Doggie Woggiez Poochie Woochiez!, but the uncovered and unleashed idiocy is more likely to drop your jaw and make you shit your pants than anything James Cameron will ever make. If you spend any time with the Everything Is Terrible people--and you really should--you'll recognize snippets of things they've played around with in shorts, snippets tossed in the ol' blender. The results don't make as much of a statement as these guys have in the other two longer things, more of a dada-rific, loosey-goosey tornado of silliness, but they're still just as funny and just as disturbing. You'll ask, "Why has society allowed this to happen?" You'll simultaneously fall in love with humanity all over again while being convinced that we're all absolute lunatics. It's the kind of beauty that can drive a man insane.
