Party Monster

Party Monster (2003) is a crime tragicomedy you can watch online on iFILM. Directors Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato dramatised the true story of Michael Alig, a small-town nobody who talked his way into New York's nightlife and remade it in his own image. Macaulay Culkin plays Alig with wide-eyed menace, Seth Green is his mentor James St. James, and the cast also includes Chloë Sevigny, Natasha Lyonne and Marilyn Manson.

Early-1990s Manhattan: the club kid scene runs on outrageous costumes, recreational excess and a complete indifference to consequence. Alig rises fast — promoter, celebrity, fixture at the biggest venues — then keeps rising past any point of control. The film tracks the glamour and the rot simultaneously, building toward the murder that ended an era. Stream Party Monster (2003) online on iFILM.
