Adventures of Serial Buddies

I saw this film at the Boston Film Festival on 9/20/11 and LOVED it! The cast was unbelievable and the movie was hilarious. The acting was great and I especially loved watching Paul Ashton in the role of Gregory. What an incredible talent!! The movie is full of fun surprises, including Kathie Lee Gifford who is SO SO funny. You should definitely watch - especially if you like off the wall humor (like I do). The movie takes you on a hilarious journey where surprises await you when you least expect them. That is part of what makes this film so funny. Some truly hilarious moments!Great job Keven Undergaro...we're expecting more greatness from you!!

The movie Serial Buddies was an extremely funny and entertaining movie that left you fully engaged and supportive of a strange and eclectic group of characters. I wonder where the writer drew his influence from in real life? I left the theater thinking how could I possibly attempt to explain what I just saw for the last 90 minutes in a way that someone who hadn't seen the movie could appreciate? I don't think it is possible as I have unsuccessfully tried a couple of times. I highly recommend seeing Serial Buddies with the understanding that your preconceived notions of what the film is about don't scratch the surface of what you will see!

An odd-ball quirky, comedy about serial killers. Haven't see this before! The film begins by introducing us to our leads -- outcast loners who just want to be loved. One, a wanna-be priest who kills for God's glory, the other a trophy-maker who worries about trophy production problems. They become partners in a weird rampage that brings them to strange lands and ever more increasing numbers of eccentric characters. This film is a visual feast, with colors and costumes that treat the eyes. Characters surprise and delight with their peculiar world-vision. And the story is certainly one never seen before.

Writer/Director Undergaro clearly possesses a rich inner life, and spending some time there, through his film, is a treat. Kinda like chocolate covered bacon -- it's strange, and you might have to think about it, but undoubtedly, you like it!

With cameos from the brilliant Christopher Lloyd, hilarious Kathie Lee Gifford, and brilliantly underplayed Christopher McDonald, among MANY others, this film constantly surprises and delights. In a kooky and uncommonly wonderful way.

So, I saw this at the film festival in Boston and it was so refreshing to see a comedy that was original. The story was so amazing. The actors were HILARIOUS! Paul Ashton (Gregory) was AMAZING!!! The actors were so funny because they so obviously love and believe in their characters and therefore made them real and that made me love them. My only complaint was that I wish I could see more of it!

Finally real actors are on the screen. PLUS Maria Menounos is not only a producer who happens to be gorgeous but can ACT! Keven Undergaro who wrote and directed the project clearly knows comedy. If you want to see a real comedy with actual great actors and a screenplay that has actual brains watch where this one goes!!!

Love love love it!!!!

Saw this movie on a lark without reading any reviews (turns out later there weren't too many to be found anyway) or even seeing a preview. It's been years since I've done that, and now I remember why.

For some reason when we walked all the way to the back of the multiplex to get to the one theater this movie was showing in, and found that it was empty, I wasn't concerned. In retrospect, I guess that should have been my first clue.

The two characters meeting each other for the first time was a little funny, but it went downhill fast. I was a little worried when I saw the film quality. It looked like it was filmed on a low-end consumer digital camera, like if you kept playing the movie you would have found scenes of one of the director's niece's birthday parties or something.

Then the fat guy showed up. That's when I knew.

Here's this guy who looks to be in his early 40s playing what I suppose is supposed to be a fat teenager (I guess? it's never explained). His voice cracks and he really wants to learn how to make trophies. Something about that is supposed to be funny because there are all these "baaaawooom" and kazoo noises going off in the background as he walks around. Ya know, because it's funny.

Then there's one of the killers who dresses in brightly colored clothes and prances around. I guess this is meant to suggest he is gay, but maybe not? Again, more wacky noises going off in the background when he's dancing around.

I could go on but at some point I fell asleep. Next thing I know my wife is nudging me to tell me it's time to go. I think we were about 30 minutes into the movie at this point.
