Cannibal: The Musical

Cannabal was Trey Parker's first real full length movie. There's some really funny anedotes about it... You can get some of them at the BEHIND THE SCENES section of the Comedy Central web site... (check out the Q&A at Aspen Comedy Art's Festival). Anyway, it was originally called Alferd Packer: The Musical and it's actually about Alferd Packer who was convicted of cannabalism during the gold rush years. Trey actually broke his hip during the makinf of this movie AND managed to get kicked out of college.

Anyway, you can try to buy it at REEL.COM or TROMA.COM. I've tried both places and still have yet to get a response. I have a copy, but it's a really shitty 12th generation copy that I got years and years ago.

In fact, this last episode about Sundance Film Festival was a personal stab, since Trey Parker submitted Cannabal! but didn't get so much as a rejection letter... Later, though, after South Park was a success, Sundance came to HIM for the movie Orgazmo. (Yes, Trey was a trooper and opened Orgazmo at Sundance).

Anyway, the whole thing is written by, starring, directed by, music composed by Trey Parker. Matt Stone and Dian Bachar (From Baseketball) are also in it... other familiar names like Toddy Walters and Ian Hardin, and Jason McHugh are also in it, as Trey obviously likes working with his friends. (At the time of Cannabal, though, Trey was actually recruiting these guys because they happened to be in his film classes).

Do you know where to get a copy of it? I've tried Troma AND Reel.com and both places have decided to ignore my orders. I have a REALLY SHITTY 12th generation copy that I got one of the first times the movie began circulating (when no one knew who the hell Trey Parker was :) ) Anyway, if you can shed me some light, I'd really appreciate it :)

Thanks, Christina

You know, the more I read about this, the more I believe I remember it being released. Wasn't it about Alfred Packer? I do remember a single review about a movie regarding Packer ... maybe this is it.

Yep Rabbit... that's the one!!! I've been trying to obtain an original copy for three months. I paid a LARGE sum of money to Troma... but they've ignored my order and still haven't charged my card... I'm going to call them, though. Someone finally found me a phone number, so hopefully I'll be able to talk to a real person, instead of dealing in cyberspace all the time.

Wish me luck! Christina
