Pubic Access

Two ambitious but naive teenagers, Sheldon and Whiz, seek fame by creating their own public access television show, 'The Extreme'. Their show quickly devolves into a chaotic and violent spectacle, attracting the attention of the local mob. As their aspirations spiral out of control, they find themselves in over their heads, entangled in a dangerous world far removed from their initial intentions.

It has since gained a cult following, appreciated for its raw energy and early work from its future successful directors and actors.
