Film Geek

I watched the DVD "Film Geek." The cover compared it to "Napoleon Dynamite." It wasn't as funny.

Synopsis

Film Geek is the story of Scotty Pelk (Melik Malkasian), a socially inept video stork clerk who gets fired from his job and becomes a sensation as an online film critic. When he is not at work, he spends most of his time serving as webmaster for his movie review website which hardly gets any traffic, masturbating, and obsessively watching movies alone in his apartment. The rest of the time he pathetically lusts after the bratty Kaitlin and and the icy-blonde Cindy who both despise him. Being as utterly clueless as he is he continually pursues them despite their rejection of him. In one of the funniest scenes in the whole movie life hits the bottom of the barrel for Scotty when he is fired from his job at the video store. He goes crazy running about the store turning everything into chaos. Despite the low point Scotty has reached it also turns out to be a turning point when he meets the captivating Niko. (Tyler Gannon) Niko is a cool, Portland-hipster who loves movies almost as much as he does. Unlike everyone else in his life she doesn't mind discussing them with him and connecting with him in general despite his nerdy ways. Scotty soon realizes that he might just have met the love of his life. One of the main problems is that her scummy boyfriend just isn't going to let go so easily.
