Movie Pick: The Death of Dick Long
The Death of Dick Long is the sophomore effort of Daniel Scheinert (Swiss Army Man—known colloquially as the “farting corpse movie”), a ribald comedy about the drummer in a small town Alabama garage band who expires after a night of heavy boozing, and his bandmates’ fumbling attempts to cover up the accident.

Alamo Drafthouse, 700 W. 7th St. Ste. U240, Downtown; Fri., Sept. 27, various showtimes; $15-$18 (213) 217-9027, drafthouse.com. … [Read more...] about Movie Pick: The Death of Dick Long
