In spite of a semi-successful crowdfunding campaign and the involvement of celebrity fans, the filmmakers succumb to their own infighting and bad luck leaving an unpaid camera operator to finish the film.
Plot: Two amateur filmmakers attempt to make a documentary about the legendary underground “phone-work artist” Longmont Potion Castle, who, since 1988, has released sixteen albums of hilariously surreal phone pranks. Despite a semi-successful crowdfunding campaign and the involvement of celebrity fans, the filmmakers succumb to their own infighting and bad luck, abandoning the project. A year later, the unpaid camera operator liberates the raw footage and finishes the film.

There Needs to be a Better Documentary about LPC and His Art
Longmont Potion Castle is one of the most fascinating enigmas of our lifetime, right up there with Banksy in my mind. For people expecting something as unique as “Exit Through the Gift Shop”‘s approach to dissect the effect the artist has had on his longtime fans, this aint it. Even a simple walk through LPC’s albums and most popular bits would’ve have been fine, instead we get 2 dudes way in over their heads who didn’t care about presenting something with care. Chunks of this are crudely slapped together in editing, its mostly uneven interviews with musicians and Rainn Wilson poorly remembering bits from the prank calls, and worst of all the director’s tried to fix their mess they must’ve realized they had by making themselves the main characters in a mockumentary. Someone with foresight could’ve made it work, unfortunately it feels like my lazy attempt at making a documentary in junior high, yeah I could’ve gone back and shot better stuff and nixed all the pointless unfunny bits, but I also wanted to be done working on it. That’s how this feels, not like underdogs were making a shoestring budget film (that might’ve been endearing on some level), it just feels like they didn’t have the energy to try making this a film any LPC fan would wanna show other fans or even someone who wants to know about the legend himself. The bits where they actually interview Longmont are obviously the best parts and I don’t hold him responsible for anything I disliked about the film, I just wish it had been made by people who cared enough. I guess I’ll have to make my own documentary on one of my comedy idols seeing as how low the bar has been set.
