SOURCE-York Entertainment DVD
See it happen often. Movie sits on the shelves for a few years. Then a minor member of the cast become a star. So movie gets released with this new star right on the cover. When they got like 10 minutes of screen time. Evicted is a good example of this.
Made in 1999,but this DVD release is from 5 years later,Evicted is a film that would be forgotten. But 2 things save it from that fate. First off you got Shannon Elizabeth back when she was a huge star thanks to AMerican Pie. Secondly this is the last film Laurence Tierney was in.
So Micro and T are two slackers living in Los Angeles. They are behind on the rent and being evicted. So Micro decides to throw a big party on his last night at the apartment.
Heavily inspired by stuff like Clerks,Slacker and many other cult classics for Generation X,Evicted tries really hard. But fails cause of a lack of budget.
Love how the back cover of the DVD mentions Rock n Roll High School,Dazed and Confused and Slacker. No clue why Rock n Roll High School was mentioned.
So Shannon Elizabeth plays the stripper Princess. And she breaks one of my rules about cinema. If you play a stripper in a movie at least show some skin. She does stand out while on the screen,and not just cause she is a attractive lady. Nope that natural charisma she has shines through.
No extras. The DVD is 4:3 and the sound is basic stereo. Having only paid a buck for it I don't feel ripped off. And it is decent enough I will keep it and watch it again down the road.
Evicted gets a C-.
