WOW. This just played at the Calgary Underground Film Festival. Absolutely bonkers!! I literally can not figure out how this movie was backed for $18 million. I can only imagine how that pitch could have gone.
"So, there's this house with over 100 big wild cats in it, and a family arrives and keeps trying to avoid the cats trying to eat them. Then after the family sleeps on it, they decide they love the animals"
"Interesting setup! Ok, what's the story?"
"That's the story"
"Oh... Any chance you could add a secondary plot to stretch this to 90 minutes?"
"How about... funny African guy who is scared of lions?"
"Love it!"
Roared is a perfect fit for HDTGM. Crazy productions stories, it's basically Tippi Hendren and her family doing all the acting, there is almost no plot, and the plot makes no sense, and there are all sorts of unbelievable scenes. But I think hardly anyone has ever seen it so not sure what to do about that?
