"Cannibal! The Musical" comes to The Beverly Theater for a special screening of Trey Parker's cult classic film. This early work from the co-creator of South Park tells the comedic musical tale of Alferd Packer, the only American ever convicted of cannibalism. Made while Parker was still in college, this outrageous dark comedy features memorable musical numbers and the same irreverent humor that would later make South Park famous.
Originally released in 1993, this horror-comedy musical satirizes both the Western genre and classic Broadway musicals while telling its bizarre true-crime story. The film has gained a devoted following over the years for its quirky songs, intentionally amateur production values, and unique blend of historical events with absurdist humor.
