Screenhead

Okay Screenhead patrons, listen up, because we’ve got some interesting, never before seen (here) news for you today.

You’ve watched us write up the very best and the very worst stuff that Hollywood has to offer, and you’ve even seen us tear apart the same grade on YouTube with our twice-daily review section.

Now, we’re putting out the call to you.  Filmmakers, do you think you’ve got what it takes to survive a Screenhead review?  You know we’re among the toughest reviewers in the game, and we’re never afraid to call it like we see it.  But if you think you’ve got the film to make us pull that thumb up, metaphorically speaking, then you can enter the first annual (assuming we actually get some entries) Screenhead Film Festival.

Why would you put yourself through this kind of hellish scrutiny, you wonder?  Why would you put your work up on a chopping block that has generated such choice phraseology as “this literally unwatchable inky smear (of a movie)” and “desperately longed to be avant-garde but instead was pure avant-crap“?

Simple–we’re offering PRIZES.

That’s right, kids, I’m opening up my own private movie locker to get the winner a prize pack of TEN DVDs.  I’m not going to tell you which ones, but know this–they’re movies.  And they’re FREE.

Ten DVDs goes to the winner, so grab your friends and your camcorders and start filming.  Just post the film to YouTube and post a link to it on this comment page.  In turn, your short will be reviewed right here on Screenhead.  All submissions must be received by Saturday, October 31, 2009 and a winner will be announced Monday, November 9, 2009.

The movie Role Models is a hilarious comedy. Danny and Wheeler are two salesmen who trash a company truck on an energy drink-fueled bender.  Upon their arrest, the court gives them a choice: do hard time or spend 150 service hours with a mentorship program.  After one day with the kids, however, jail doesn’t look half bad. Surrounded by annoying do-gooders, Danny struggles with his every neurotic impulse to guide Augie (Christopher Mintz-Plasse) through the trials of becoming a man.  Unfortunately, the guy just dumped by his girlfriend (Elizabeth Banks) has only sarcasm to offer a bashful 16-year-old obsessed with medieval role play. Meanwhile, charming Wheeler tries to trade in an addiction to partying and women to assist a fifth-grader named Ronnie (Bobb’e Thompson) redirect his foul-mouthed ways.  It would probably help if Ronnie’s new mentor wasn’t an overgrown adolescent whose idea of quality time includes keggers in Venice Beach. Once the center’s ex-con director (Jane Lynch) gives them an ultimatum, Danny and Wheeler are forced to tailor their brand of immature wisdom to their charges.  And if they can just make it through probation without getting thrown in jail, the world’s worst role models will prove that, sometimes, it takes a village idiot to raise a child.

Also, as a special feature for those you can’t get enough of Role Models, here is a link to the Role Models Babe Watcher Game. You can help Wheeler, Danny, Augie and Ronnie find babes to hang out with!
