A novice director teams up with some folks dying to get into the movies
in this comedy thriller. Deborah (Natasha Lyonne) is a socially awkward
librarian whose father runs the Victoria Theater, a crumbling old movie
house favored by film buffs. When Deborah's dad dies unexpectedly, the
family inherits the theater, and while Deborah wants to keep it open,
her mother would rather sell it to developers eager to open a Bed, Bath
And Beyond in the neighborhood. An argument between Deborah and her mom
turns violent, and Deborah ends up killing her; a surveillance camera
captures the bloody assault and by accident it's projected onto the
screen at the Victoria, where the jaded movie geeks eat it up. Suddenly
Deborah decides she's found her calling as a filmmaker, surrounding
herself with a retinue of eccentric would-be stars and shooting bloody
horror flicks on shoestring budgets. But what her fans don't know is
that Deborah isn't using a special effects man, and the bloody killings
in her film are the real thing. All About Evil features a handful of
cult film favorites in supporting roles, among them John Waters regular
Mink Stole and Cassandra Peterson (better known as "Elvira, Mistress Of
The Dark"). Director Joshua Grannell is better known in his native San
Francisco as drag performer Peaches Christ, and "Peaches" makes a cameo
appearance in the film.
