One of the films I saw at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival was a twisted little indie titled The Immaculate Conception of Little Dizzle. By far, the strangest film I screened at the fest, the film is directed by first time feature director David Russo, who as I wrote in my Sundance review, “uses his experience in animated short films to create a cinematic acid trip, which might be so strange and different that it might alienate.” Little Dizzle tells the story of a young man who is forced to join a group of misfits who clean office buildings during the night time hours and become addicted to chemically-altered cookies which have some strange side effects. It only gets stranger, but I think that explaining exactly who Little Dizzle is might be revealing too much. A trailer for the film has been released online, and is available after the jump.

  • oh.
  • Yes, friends. No sex was involved in the creation of this trailer.
  • Leland Palmer
    Holy Shit!
  • Hey Peter, isn't that the girl from Lost? Lol
  • That was breathtaking in that I think I forgot to breathe throughout its duration. A must-see judging by the trailer.
  • yeah, that trailer was pretty friggin sweet. seems right up my ally.
  • That looks awesome.
  • Looks like something Michel Gondry would try.
  • yeah I thought the same thing!
  • Geist
    I would think more like Spike Jonze. It's not as wacky as Gondry's work. More like Gondry super-lite. I personally wasn't won over, but I'd see it down the line.
  • That was the first trailer in a long time to get my full attention. If that doesn't capture the malaise and daze of Generation Y and the need to break free from consumer culture, with the somewhat ironic escape of becoming a user, I don't know what does. I'll be keeping an eye on this one. Any word on distribution, Peter?
  • looks awesome.
  • Billy King
    I recognized that guy from Friends, when he pretends to be in love with Ross to make him change his grades. How did I remember that?
  • WOW...that is certainly not a movie you see every day
