COMPETITIVE EATING MOVIE SEEKS EATERS

It's not every day you get a chance to be in a movie about something you love. Now's your chance. Some aspiring independent film makers are making a movie about competitive eating called "Nacho Mountain" and they're taping some of the big eating contest scenes this Saturday night outside Bethlehem, PA.

Here's the plea put forth by one of the production assistants in a comment on Eat Feats:

Any professional food eaters, not currently under contract, that are interested in being in the final food battle scene for Nacho Mountain and you live close to Lehigh Valley, PA (Bethlehem, PA), please email Dan at (email removed by request because shooting is complete). The final food battle is this saturday, you will be guaranteed screen time. come on out and eat!

I emailed Dan and gave me the green light (I didn't even have to audition!), but I realized that I have something else planned already for Saturday night and won't be able to go. If you're interested in making your indy film debut, Dan said they need more eaters, so e-mail him today. The shoot starts at 6pm and should wrap before midnight.

The good news is, the movie has its own IMDb page (some of the actors have real acting experience). The bad news is, the movie has it's own teaser poster and it's own teaser trailer on YouTube. View both at your own risk.

Can we define movie, please? This isn't a movie. It's a waste of money.

I have been part of several independent film projects in the past. If you want my advice dont waste your time on this crap. No money , no incentive and at best it might have screening at some local college or a teeny weeny out of the way theatre suited for pee wee herman's masturbating skills.

Is this movie being produced by Troma? It has LLoyd Kaufman written all over it.
