Click here to view the original publicity poster for Appetite for Destruction.
For the past year, struggling indy filmmaker Finn Middleton and his tech-geek of a roommate Lars Fuhrman have been anonymously posting spoof cooking videos on the Internet. Without much effort, the duo’s snarky enterprise has become an online phenomenon—making Finn a cyber-space celebrity. All’s cool in the kitchen until Finn is contacted by a hungry broadcasting company eager to capitalize on his culinary exploits. The kettle really begins to boil when Finn is forced to explain to his girlfriend, Abigail Stone, what all the buzz is about—and why he never bothered to mention it before.
Exploring issues of ownership, transparency and internet anonymity Appetite for Destruction is both a crisis of the self and a comment on raking it in and keeping it real in the online era.
