NYC trio the Beastie Boys have achieved popular success through their lively blend of punk, old school hip-hop, and cut-and-paste pop. This performance documentary finds the group injecting new energy into a staid form by distributing 50 DV and Hi-8 cameras to fans before a sold-out show at Madison Square Garden, then cleverly assembling the footage. The end result is a rough and rowdy document of a band that's still at the peak of its powers. Edited by Nathanial Hornblower (Adam Yauch), with appearances by Mike D., Adam Horowitz, Mix Master Mike, Money Mark, and Doug E. Fresh. "A hyperactive exercise in democratic documentary" (The New York Times). Nathanial Hornblower---USA---2006---88 mins.

By some sort of miracle, Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope are transported from their lair in Detroit to the Wild West for this loose follow-up to Big Money Hustlas. The face-painted pest, Big Baby Chips, is terrorizing a frontier town. The new sheriff, Sugar Wolf, arrives just in time for the gathering...of the gunslingers. Say what you will about the Insane Clown Posse, but you have to applaud the Juggalos' efforts to extend a Faygo bottle and a paying gig to fellow pop culture castaways, including Jason Mewes, Ron Jeremy, Brigitte Nielsen, Todd Bridges, Vanilla Ice, and, confusingly, the Jesus Lizard's David Yow. Note: For best results, please enjoy Big Money Rustlas after midnight and among friends with similarly good taste.
