| According to an invitation I recieved
to attend the Wrap Party for Party Monster, which stars
Marilyn Manson, Seth Green, Macaulay Culkin, Chloe Sevigny,
Natasha Lyonne, Dylan McDermott and John Stamos, the
closed event is reported to take place at Eugene located
at NYC on Saturday, June 22nd. Talk about bad timing
as I may not be able to attend!
Written and directed
by Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato, the cast includes
Macaulay Culkin (Michael Alig), Seth Green (James
St. James), Marilyn Manson, Chloe Sevigny, Natasha
Lyonne, Dylan McDermott, Wilson Cruz, John Stamos,
Wilmur Valderama and Manny Perez. Based on James St.
James's critically acclaimed book, Disco Bloodbath,
Party Monster is the true story of Michael Alig, New
York's club kid king turned killer. Set in the nightclub
scene of the late 1980's, Party Monster details an
extravagant life which quickly spiraled downward.
A darkly comic recounting of the sick, sad and true
story of Michael Alig, Party Monster charts the murder
of Angel Melendez, Alig's drug dealer roommate who
he injected with Drano before throwing in the East
River. After boasting on television that he killed
Melendez much of the press thought it was a publicity
stunt until his body washed ashore. Produced by Killer
Films (Boys Don't Cry, Hedwig and the Angry Inch)
and World of Wonder Productions (The Eyes of Tammy
Faye), the film was co-financed by Ed Pressman & John
Schmidt's ContentFilm and Fortissimo Film Sales. This
is a closed event: Press will not have access inside
the live event.
