Two luckless stoners
begin a truly awful evening when they discover they have a dead girlfriend
on their hands in this black comedy from writer and director Allen Moyle.
Dexter (Scott Speedman) and Royce (Wes Bentley) are a pair of half-bright
slackers living in a nowhere town in Northern Ontario. Dexter and Royce's
lack of ambition is compounded by the fact they're both heroin addicts,
and they support their habits by dealing dope for Omar (Raoul Bhaneja),
a ruthless dealer who's not to be trifled with. Matilda (Taryn Manning),
Royce's girlfriend, makes the mistake of dipping into their product one
night and suffers a serious O.D.; frightened, Royce and Dexter decide they
have to get rid of the body, and Dexter suggests they bury her in the boiler
room of a drive-in movie theater where he used to work. The guys take Matilda's
body to the drive-in and are about to cover her up when they realize she
isn't dead yet; however, their timing is flawed, as this discovery coincides
with the arrival of a gaggle of would-be Satan Worshipers, who are looking
for a likely candidate for their first human sacrifice. Weirdsville was
chosen as the opening night presentation for the 2007 Slamdance Film Festival.
