NEW YORK MAGAZINE REVIEW
Parental advisory: What follows is the most outrageous line of dialogue I?ve found at Tribeca: ?I could make ten tapes of Paris Hilton and she could suck off the King of Jordan, It?s still going to be Paris Hilton sucking dick. You?ve never seen anybody eat people on television, have you?? That?s Paris Hilton porn-video promoter Kevin Blatt, speaking from the back of a strip-club in the Tribeca documentary American Cannibal by Perry Grebin and Michael Nigro. In this oddball film, two frustrated writers end up selling a show to Blatt based on the idea of stranding contestants on an island, starving them, and then convincing them to become cannibals. The premise itself is a bit shaky and unclear?and, not so surprisingly, the show crumbles before they?ve filmed the pilot, as a mysterious cast member falls ill (and, crew members claim, into a coma). The quotes from industry experts, including the founder of Sex.com and Debbie Demontreaux of IFC, are fairly fascinating, as they suggest how low reality TV may soon go. But the gaps and elisions are too sloppy to be convincing?including the bizarre inability to determine the name and fate of the cast member who supposedly fell ill. There are so many odd incongruities that the end result?whether a put-on or not?feels like one (think: more Incident at Loch Ness than Control Room). But then again, reality TV has rarely cared much about truth?and maybe this is the doc it deserves. Besides, the crass truthiness here is far more apt than any of the glossy satire in American Dreamz.? Reviewed by Logan Hill, New York Magazine
Tribeca was an incredible thing to have witnessed, I personally thought this film was a bit slow, but I am too attached to the project to really form an opinion- I know you?d love it though
