phancy.com rating:

phancy.com notes: A tale of cosmic horror, an otherworldy being enslaving an entire town through sound waves, all told in the periphery of regional TV ads, news and public access reglious programming. It's weird, it's strangely compelling, it's very funny. Replicates the experience of flipping through TV channels late at night in the 90s, except you'll be repeatedly saying WTF as a strange narrative slowly coalesces. I can't imagine the time it took to design and create all the ads featured. They are pitch perfect.

4 out of 5 skulls - Buffet Infinity' Is The Analog Horror Comedy We Didn't Know We Needed

While the film is first and foremost a comedy, the cosmic horror elements are so well executed that it's easy to imagine a project shot in the exact same style but replacing the humorous bits with more disturbing examples of supernatural anomalies slowly sneaking into day-to-day life. In fact, plenty of the footage in the latter half of the flick is legitimately creepy even within the comedic context, especially once you realize that this entire community has been so utterly dominated by eldritch forces that they can't help but normalize the insanity surrounding them. I'm also a sucker for emergency broadcasts with a paranormal twist, so this movie was right up my alley.

"Buffet Infinity" is 3am Channel Surfing at its Finest

You know the feeling where you're lying on your couch and the TV's on in the background, but it's not really registering? You're fading in and out of sleep and before you know it it's 3:00 a.m. and whatever channel you had on is showing the most surreal infomercials you've ever seen. Things feel hazy and too strange to be real, while the flickering light of the TV almost creates a trance-like state. Simon Glassman's Buffet Infinity has taken that sensation and turned it into a fully-formed narrative film without losing that ephemeral feeling.
