20 years later, STARSLYDERZ comes home!
In 2006, a bonkers, no-budget sci-fi comedy called STARSLYDERZ premiered at Another Hole in the Head Film Festival, where Variety boldly declared, “Cult status is assured.”
The film went on to screen at Fantasia and open France's Mauvais Genre Festival before being picked up by a distributor who promptly buried it. When the heartbroken filmmakers finally regained the rights five years later, they made an unusual decision: lock it away and let it age like a fine wine.
Now, 20 years after its original AHITH premiere, STARSLYDERZ returns to the festival where it all began, featuring a newly remastered edit that no audience has ever seen!
Shot guerrilla-style over two chaotic weeks on MiniDV throughout San Francisco, this gloriously unhinged sci-fi adventure features a troupe of sleep-deprived young actors, an army of puppets, the work of approximately 150 volunteer visual effects artists, and an incredible soundtrack featuring Santa Cruz's legendary experimental band Estradasphere.
You've never seen anything quite like STARSLYDERZ.
Join us for this special 20th Anniversary Re-Premiere, with the filmmakers in attendance and a theater full of fellow weirdos!
One film. Twenty years. A whole new level of strange.
