You know what group of people is almost universally made up of douche bags? Serial killers. In The Scenesters, a serial killer is targeting hipster girls. The good news is, The Scenesters is a low budget film, with very little high-priced talent, so it may only have to hit 5 million to break even.
A failed filmmaker takes a job as a crime scene videographer. He befriends some crime scene cleaners, like what Amy Adams did in Sunshine Cleaners, and he and the cleaner start to pick up on clues that the detectives on the case are missing. The pair start tracking down a dangerous killer.
The tag line for the film is: Lights. Camera. Murder.
SNAPDRAGON!
The Scoop
The Scenesters is a small indie film by Todd Berger, who wrote the screenplay for the video short Kung Fu Panda: Secrets of the Furious Five. So there is talent to spare. Oh, and Todd plays the failed filmmaker, in the film. Not in real life. Cause he’s such a successful filmmaker, what with The Scenesters guaranteed to make somewhere in the vicinity of $80 Billion dollars. Billion.
