Overview (pulled from Google) In a series of cheap, locally produced television commercials, a story unfolds that begins as a simple business rivalry between small business owners and the looming threat of Buffet Infinity. As Buffet Infinity endlessly expands and grows, swallowing everything in its path, a sinister conspiracy unfolds at the margins, and unfathomable powers begin to worm their way into the vulnerable community of Westridge County, Alberta.

My pitch: This is one of the strangest and best low-budget cosmic horror films I’ve seen. Inspired by SCTV (a classic Canadian satire show most people over the age of 30 grew up watching) this film weaves a satire of consumerism among nostalgic, yet uncanny local ads. It’s funny and yet dread-filled, and probably one of the best movies I’ve seen this year.
