I think this is anthropological fucking AWESOMENESS, and particularly as time goes on. Good that it didn't go on any longer than it did. (the movie, that is, not time)

Mercifully short at 15 minutes, but still twice as long as it should be, the entirety of this "documentary" is drunken young adults yelling "Metal Rules!" and "Priest Rocks!" and combinations thereof. How much of this amuses depends on how much of an even more one-note Beavis and Butthead episode you can stomach.

Wouldn't be nearly as bad if the message was just "lol @ poor people with funny hair", because at least then it would be honest. Instead this feels more like the work of some smug, self-styled cultural anthropologist, paying a sort of fawning and condescending reverence to these "fascinating subjects."

So you film a bunch of drunk kids at a concert doing nothing particularly interesting and it's somehow an anthropological hidden gem?
