Eat Me, Too: Karmageddon

Had to get this one on paper.

As if I haven't enough to do, I'm concocting a sequel to my zombie musical Eat Me.

http://www.eatmemovie.com/

It's called Eat Me, Too: Karmageddon.

Karmageddon is a term that references "shit hitting the fan" in an extreme way while acknowledging one's contributions to that event. Specifically, when all the (usually unpleasant) stuff you've done comes back to you at once. (Urban Dictionary)

In Eat Me, Too, Peter (the star of Eat Me) - now a substance-abusing, reluctant messiah - leads a cult that stares at a black dot on the wall. Bored, anxious, and horny, he starts going Koresh on his flock. His right hand man The Chicken turns out to be his Judas - and savior. There's a Mary who's on a homicidal vengeance spree and another Mary, the Slutty Seamstress - we'll have to bring back Satan's ex-wives (please, Devon Sproule). There may be some karate. It's all very Jesus Christ Superstar, but with martial arts and marital aids. There will some puppetry ... and, of course, claymation.

There will be new band members - Carter Lewis ("I have a thumb... You have a thumb... Now we are best friends."

Songs to consider: River of Liquor, Matador, Irate Sally, Fire Escape, Uh Oh, My Balls, You Never Answer my Rhetorical Questions (gonna have to get that list from Lance). Maybe do a full version of Are you Sexually Available.

Pepper it with some new fake advertisements: Smite-amins (vitamins that give you godlike powers), Yukon Gold potatoes, Karma Wax, Shamp'u (see earlier post, maybe we'll also do Mandaids).

The Falsies will lead. But we'll bring in some other local bands - Barling and Collins, Accordian Death Squad, Surfzilla, Straight Punch to the Crotch. Maybe get Christian Breeden to do a song. And Jim Waive. Or whatever's left of the Love Tentacle Drip Society. Would love to get Jesus H. Christ in there from NYC.

Somehow, having a sequal legitimizes the first. Or maybe it doesn't. At least it'll be in HD. And maybe we'll shoot in Mexico for some crazy Alejandro Jodorowsky Holy Mountain visuals.

Although the film would rely laregly on common Christian allegory, it might also delve into Mormonism and Falun Gong. There might also be a Hindu Brahmin.
