Idiocracy (2006)
Idiocracy is a sometimes dead-on satire built around writer-director Mike Judge’s perceived dumbing down of America due to current trends in education, entertainment, and politics. In some ways, I think it effectively states what a...
The Third Wheel (2002)
Filmed way back in 1999, The Third Wheel was kept in movie limbo for many years, finally seeing some theater action in Europe in 2002, years before heading straight to video in the US in 2004. ...
