Dick Dickster
(2018)

People seek revenge on hack director.
"They want Dick Dickster" is an irreverent spoof of the movie industry. Bobby Ray Shafer has created a hilarious script that is filled with his dark sense of humor. The film deals at least partially with the seedier side of the film industry, and does so with very little nudity and only slapstick violence, but plenty of purple language, so prepared for that.

The film is done with "Blair Witch Project" style photography, which gives it a sense of realism. It also includes "interview" clips of various characters, all discussing why they want Dick Dickster. This appears to have been done to give the film a documentary look, and this was successful.

From the characters' names to the spoof of splatter films, Bobby Ray Shafer and company have succeeded in creating another film that's destined to become a cult favorite, like Shafer's earlier "Psycho Cop" series.

Shafer is a great actor with a black sense of humor and I found the whole thing to be sidesplittingly funny. I had belly laughs through the entire film, the first of which came even before the opening credits. I can't wait for the sequel!
