Spike and Mike's Sick and Twisted did not disappoint. The Avon hosted the show last night, which was a little less sick and twisted than I remember. But still, twisted enough.
Most memorable, in my opinion were Don Hertzfeldt's Bitter Films, specifically "rejected" and "ah, l'amour." "rejected" was the evening's finale piece, and it really defies description. Hertzfeldt's stick-figure drawing combined with his goofy, twisted wit had the crowd in stitches. Mike and I remembered past festivals and reminisced about our favorite bits. One treat in this festival, a short documentary film featuring Spike himself in a Rasta cabbie's hat.
