Party Monster Party Monster is based on the novel Disco Bloodbath by James St. James, himself another so-called "Club Kid." These kids rose to fame in New York beginning in the late 80s as flamboyant party animals who organized wild parties. The new Party Monster is a fairly straightforward telling of Alig's life as soon as he came to New York. The issue with Party Monster is, that in a film full of drugs, partying, sex and booze, everything comes across as pretty dull. www.haro-online.com /movies/party_monster.html   (806 words)

James St. James - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia James St. James (born James Clark, August 1, 1966) is a former Club Kid of the Manhattan club scene in the late 1980s/early 1990s and the author of Disco Bloodbath (now published under the title Party Monster). He was notorious for a lifestyle of excess that included constant heavy drug use, partying, and bizarre costumes. A documentary titled Party Monster (1998) was based on the events leading up to and surrounding the murder, and a film by the same name was released in 2003, which starred Seth Green as St. James and Macaulay Culkin as Alig. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/James_St._James   (214 words)

Monster Party In fact, most levels in Monster Party are "token" levels yanked out of countless other games in the name of parody, or as I suggested earlier, as a result of the greatest gaming drug binge in history. Royce would be your ordinary giant rolling insect monster, except he becomes one of the only bosses in known history to actually have furnishings in the usual barren boss room. Monster Party is one of the most awesome games ever, the ultimate parody of a typical platformer that's still fun to play all the way through. www.angelfire.com /ny5/polas/nes/mp.html   (2765 words)

Party Monster doesn't really have an issue to speak about, and this is why Bailey and Barbato trade-off substance for style.

Party Monster movie Review at The Z Review UK movie review His gender – bending party nights at the “Limelight” were the place to be seen, especially if you liked to indulge in outlandish fashions and trendy drugs. The first thing to note about Party Monster is that it has little perception of the passage of time. Camp documentarians Bailey and Barbato expand their 1998 "shockumentary" Party Monster into a narrative film, and the result is similar to their docs: colourful and silly yet also serious and deeply moving. www.thezreview.co.uk /reviews/p/partymonster.htm   (1173 words)

Salon Directory   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13) "Party Monster" is based on the book St. James wrote about Alig, "Disco Bloodbath," and on the documentary that was also called "Party Monster" and was directed, like this film, by Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato ("The Eyes of Tammy Faye"). Inevitably, in a movie devoted to scene-makers, Chloë Sevigny (who had better decide whether she wants to be an actress or a sideshow) shows up as a girl who drifts into Alig's orbit, and so does Natasha Lyonne, padded in a fat suit with pierced lips, Ingrid Sischy glasses and ropes of fl hair. But then, "Party Monster" is the kind of movie in which it doesn't pay to be a talented actor. dir.salon.com /story/ent/movies/review/2003/09/05/party_monster/index_np.html   (876 words)

GROOVE RADIO :: Party Monster: The Party's Over? The release of Party Monster (the motion picture version of the identically named shockumentary and based on former Celebutante/Club Kid James St. James’ tell-all Disco Bloodbath) chronicles the gruesome culmination of Alig’s (Macaulay Culkin) theatre of cruelty. Party Monster’s filmmakers were then performing as an electronic duo dubbed the Fabulous Pop Tarts, and Danceteria’s owner Rudolf gave them all a shot. Party Monster’s instant success in the box office (it is the number one indie in release right now and is bound to be a cult classic) proves that every generation wants a piece of the glitz, and Keoki’s just as involved today as he ever was. www.grooveradio.com /article.asp?ArticleID=676   (2470 words)

Party Monster Description: Set in the New York club scene of the late 1980's thru the 1990's, a tale which chronicles the rise and fall of "club-kid" promoter Michael Alig, a party organizer, whose extravagant life was sent spiraling downward when he boasted on television that he had killed his "friend", roommate, and drug dealer, Angel Melendez. Originally from Indiana, Alig moved to New York, and came to be an underground legend, known for his excessive drug use and outrageous behavior in the club world. He was doing a lot of drugs, and as his addiction got worse, his party themes became darker and more twisted. www.infoplease.com /movies/39638   (249 words)

BBC - collective - party monster interview Party Monster details the truelife highs and lows of an eclectic, flamboyant group of geeks who ruled New York's club scene in the early 90s. Michael Alig (Culkin), their self-appointed leader, would do anything to be the centre of attention, even kill - he’s currently serving a life sentence for caving in the head of his drug dealer, injecting him with bleach and dumping him in the river. I’ve got this reputation for being this party kind of person, and I think that’s because when I took all that time off I did not have a publicist or whatever. www.bbc.co.uk /dna/collective/A1364799   (481 words)

Headache-inducing ‘Party Monster’ - Movie review archive - MSNBC.com   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13) This is the first feature from Bailey and Barbato, best known for their documentaries (including one from 1998 called “Party Monster,” about the same subject). “Party Monster” follows the duo from their first meeting in the early ’90s, when St. James was already a fixture in the ultra-glam, drug-infested New York City nightclub scene and Alig was an anxious neophyte with his nose pressed against the glass. The 13-year-olds in “Thirteen” are just as codependent and screwed up as the party monsters of “Party Monster,” but you walk out of “Thirteen” caring about them because they’re so richly drawn. www.msnbc.msn.com /id/3075692   (715 words)

A film by Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato, PARTY MONSTER debuted on Cinemax in June as part of the Reel Life series.

Party Monster Movie review “Party Monster” is based on “Disco Bloodbath,” St. James’ account of his days with Alig that culminated in homicide. “Party Monster” is a character study that never pulls too far back from its subjects. The story is wild and sad, but Bailey and Barbato don’t want us to view it from a sense of distant superiority – they want us to feel as if we’re there at the time, and to a large extent, they succeed in their task. www.modernhometheater.com /movies/revs/partymonster.shtml   (992 words)

The Cinematic Verses: Party Monster   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13) But with their new feature Party Monster (based on Bailey and Barbato’s own documentary of the same name, as well as James St. James’ memoir Disco Bloodbath), they’ve topped themselves, taking a true story about sex, crack, celebrity, and murder, and using Macaulay Culkin as the perfect sugar to keep the nastiness down. This is problematic: we identify a bit too strongly with Culkin’s Alig, so when he morphs into the film’s titular monster, the shock value of his appalling behavior is lessened; it’s impossible to see him as a brutal criminal. It would have been nice to see more of the supporting players, and to flesh out their characters might have provided a better understanding of Alig’s downward spiral, but this film belongs to Culkin and Green, and the supporting cast can only be steamrolled or get out of the way. www.thecinematicverses.com /reviews/partymonster.html   (680 words)

Party Monster London Movie Review Party Monster directors Randy Barbato and Fenton Bailey previously had a Sundance hit with a documentary under the same title, about the rise to fame of ‘Club Kid’ Michael Alig and his eventual incarceration for the murder of his drug-dealer. The film shows Michael’s ascent to prominence as a party promoter, eventually eclipsing James before spiralling deeper and deeper into drugs and, eventually, murdering his drug dealer, Angel (Wilson Cruz). To sum up, Party Monster tells an intriguing story and is frequently very funny, but it also has its annoying moments and will severely test your tolerance for young Hollywood actors camping it up and shrieking a lot. www.viewlondon.co.uk /review_1789.html   (421 words)
