Release Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Comparisons to The Blair Witch Project are inevitable for the inventive,
satirical The Last Broadcast, a chilling and funny mockumentary by filmmakers
Stefan Avalos and Lance Weiler. Besides being made and coming to prominence
around the same time (though without a Blair Witch-style marketing juggernaut),
The Last Broadcast also details the doomed travails of some amateur filmmakers
as they track a mysterious, murderous legend in a dark forest. Hmmm, sound
familiar? Actually, The Last Broadcast takes a different tack on this premise,
one more media-savvy than Blair Witch. Turns out that this is the latest
installment of the X-Files-ish public access show Fact or Fiction, and its
doofusy hosts (Avalos and Weiler themselves) plan on doing a live broadcast from
deep in the New Jersey woods on their ongoing quest for the Bigfoot-like Jersey
Devil. Teaming up with two Internet-based fans, they plunge themselves and their
equipment into the wintry woods; only one man, the creepy psychic Jim (Jim
Seward), returns, and is promptly convicted of the murders of the other three.
While it does boast footage made by the "dead" filmmakers, The Last Broadcast is
more formally structured as a documentary, complete with officious, muckraking
host (David Leigh) and much behind-the-scenes footage. We're let in on the
backgrounds of the victims, the 911 phone calls, the murder trial, the
inconsistencies the prosecution overlooked, and the painstaking work of
reconstructing the film stock, which may unlock the mystery of the true killer.
Filmed entirely with digital cameras and assembled on digital systems for a
mind-boggling $900, The Last Broadcast boasts a great look and a sharp, satiric
eye for sending up the media--Avalos and Weiler are in calm command of their
medium and message. The film does take a sharp turn that could either enrage or
amaze viewers enraptured by what's preceded, but it's a minor quibble at best.
And unlike The Blair Witch Project, The Last Broadcast does answer all the
mysterious questions it raises.
