Killer Clams Rock the Steak House
The idea behind Kissy Balka”¦s new short film as dissected by:
Domenic Maltempi
Teddy Scocciare: Accidental Junior prognosticator, bored peripheral seer, annoyed prophet of the ultra mundane-----------a dipshit with clumpish epiphanies”K. discovers one morning that he is able to predict certain future outcomes of a more platitudinous, or homely variety”K.
Teddy won”¦t be able to tell you who will be president of the United States, but might tell you which minor league pitcher or mascot will be drinking hard on a given night, and how it will affect the next game. He might not be able to tell you the winning numbers of state lotteries, but can predict when someone will get a jay walking ticket, or have indigestion, or possibly knowing just a bit in advance if a certain blind date will go well or not. How will he milk these murky middling talents? Who will help him polish together an act that camouflages such nugatory abilities as measured against peoples expectations of what such ”„abilities”¦ generally amount to”Kin the world of fanciful narratives?
ę Teddy is ignorant about his own modest talents until he wakes up in the morning in an older woman”¦s house after making love to her with his favorite sneakers on (fictional sneakers called ”„Hangos.”¦ Deeply hung-over, with his inner voice a knot of two antiquated languages spoken vulgarly, and confused by the music he hears issuing from a gigantic gramophone that looks like woman taking a piss on a man in a dull bronze hue, and the hoary looking furniture and touches of this woman”¦s room, he feels that he has died, or left his body”K or something like that. In a very obtuse half-reverie/wild fantasy, Scocciare begins seeing little knurls and ill-drawn images of the immediate or not so far away future, he also senses through an inexplicable process, certain forces directing his thoughts in a very particular way”K. It will take the older woman (Bee Orson, and her old perverted lover Dr. Shivers who video tapes Bee”¦s cougarish bedtime victories, to convince this mealy mouth man-child that his abilities are worth exploiting for $$$$$ of course.
The very sweet Tish Roberts (resident sculptor for a fish processing company who does not need nor want her services, but she remains at because the CEO is in love with her) will try to pry away Dr. Shivers and old Bee from Teddy”¦s life as his burgeoning celebrity status extremely exacerbates his already inane existence beyond the bathos hole of holes, as well as scorching his flakey spirit to nada-nunca. Can Tish turn Teddy around?
Will Tish”¦s jealous boss try to have Teddy killed? Will Teddy be suddenly overwhelmed with a forecasting glimmer of his own death at the hands of a clam cleaner?
