The South Park creators made a gruesome West that fans must verify

In 1992, when Trey Parker and Matt Stone were in the early twenties and attended the University of Colorado at Bulder, they assembled a famous (and hateful) wheelchair (and hateful) animation called “The Spirit of Christmas”. It included a violent battle of Royal between the man of snow and Jesus Christ, as witnessed by a group of young people suffering from the mouth. This led to the assembly of Parker and Stone with a short set of work for 3 minutes, which is a fake trailer for the jokey joke called “Alferd Packer: The Musical”. Alferd Packer, as many people know, is one of only four people in American history who owe the crime of eating human meat. He confessed that he had to consume his colleagues with his comrades to survive while they were lost in the Colorado Mountains in 1874.

The reactions to the fake trailer were so positive that Parker and the stone were an inspiration to link a modest amount of money – only 125,000 dollars – and out of an actual advantage of it. Parker wrote, directed, and he starred in the movie, Bring songs with Rich Sanders. Stone participated in a tournament and production. “Alferd Packer” was filmed in the actual hills and gardens in Colorado throughout the few weekends and during the spring vacation in Parker. The scenes of the courtroom were filmed, for some authenticity, in the actual court where Baker was tried in 1873. The ancient West groups were in fact buildings in Axxkin Joe, a Western entertainment park in Canyon City, Colorado. Parker and sixty did not require much.

The final version of “Alferd Packer: The Musical” first appeared in Bulder, Colorado, on Halloween in 1993. New Jersey Schlock House TROMA is notoriousAnd he finally received a semi -wide distribution in 1996. The title “Cannibal! The Musical” was re -called.

It’s wild and cheap … in fact, very great.

Although “Cannibal! The Musical” focuses on Alferd Packer, the actual eating of human meat is kept to the minimum disappointing. The film already opens with a dramatic “entertainment” to eat virgin meat, which is imagined by a prosecutor, and the fans see that he sees Baker (Parker, the credit in Juan Schwartz) to cut it in joy and is interested in a series of heroic victims. More importantly, the attractive musical numbers are legally attractive, including “Oh, what a beautiful morning”-like the opening song “Shpadoinkle”. The opening countryside of “Shpadoinkle” was eventually used as a music for the vanity card for Parker Stone Production Company, Branif. One may also find themselves concerned with “Let’s build a snowman” when going out, and found that it is a superior song for “Do you want to build a snowman?” From “frozen”.

There is also a hidden from bitterness to “eating human meat!” This Parker confessed was completely deliberate. Parker had recently separated with his fiancée, who discovered a love affair that she was suffering shortly before her planned wedding. Parker decided to name Alferd Packer’s Horse Lianne after that (and My mother’s personality is Cartuman on “South Park”). There were many conversations on how to love alfeerd with its horse, and how the horse was now uncomfortable by running with another contestant. Alferd could not believe that. Parker talks about everything about his disintegration on the DVD comments track (which was described as “The Honorable Director’s Comment”), which suddenly ends when he becomes drunk and decides to leave the registration studio.

Cannibal! Thanks to that short, Stone and Parker are now a small celebrity, and TRoma was wise for the bank from their new situation.

For those of us who were in the college in the mid -1990s, we remember the rise of “The Spirit of Christmas” well, as it was one of the first short video pants to be replaced around the Internet. The 1995 official palace (relatively) was the 1992 version, but like Crass, and a battle has now appeared between Santa Claus and Jesus. “The Spirit of Christmas” was wandering around Hollywood On bootleg vhs tapes By some adult stars (Including George Clooney) And it allowed the stone and was mentioned to show it as a series. “South Park” was chosen by Comedy Center in 1996 and was first broadcast in 1997. The rest is the date.

Initially, Troma did not distribute “eating human meat!” Very far and wide, but the company gave Parker movie a huge boost on VHS and DVD when “South Park” started in the air. The spread of new home video versions “Cannibal!” To be discovered recently by an act of worship, most of whom are university students, who meet to see it in groups. The film’s publications began to make tours on the Midnight movie circuit, and they became a great success under the ground. University students have begun to re -formate the film on the stage, and small unauthorized productions began to perform regularly. It is difficult to track the actual beauty of the movie, but one can comfortably assume that it has obtained its budget of $ 125,000.

It is “eating human meat!” Wonderful art? Not exactly. It is cheap and jejune, dependent on humor in the second year. Like many comedies in a previous generation, some masks have reached a very bad age. But the film provides a rush of harmonious surrealism, as I think, many university children accuse. There is still now, now is available to broadcast on the main video and peacock. It is definitely worth a look.
