Movie Review for: Party Monster

April 17th, 2009 | Category: Movie Reviews

Follow James St. James into the world of the club kids and see how far the rabbit hole goes. It is the the true story of how Michael Alig killed his drug dealer/roommate and almost got away with it.

Seth Green proves himself as an actor by playing James St. James. It is hard to believe the creator of Robot Chicken could pull it off, but Green has been in the game since he was ten years old.

Macaulay Culkin does a good job with the role of Michael Alig. He is working hard to shake the stigma of his childhood fame in Home Alone.

Party Monster was adopted from the book Disco Bloodbath. St. James serves a well written story of Alig’s rise as king of the club kids during the late 80s and early 90s in New York. While St. Jame’s love/hate relationship with Alig does not provide a non-bias opinion of actual events, it is an interesting version of Angle’s death and dismemberment.

There are few things on the shelf as good as Party Monster. The soundtrack is like no other. And you have to love a movie that has Marilyn Manson in drag.
