Fantastic Fest 2008

DONKEY PUNCH is a movie about a group of European party kids who "borrow" a yacht for a private party and take things much, much too far. We're going to do our best to emulate the spirit of that party, but we're going to replace all the blood, gore, killing, and mistrust with one of the THE best dance parties of the summer, right before it officially becomes autumn.

We're joining forces with TheFamousish.com to bring a crew of Austin's "coolest" DJs out onto a floating dance floor right in the heart of downtown, on Lady Bird Johnson Lake. We've had dance parties on water before, but as awesome as our dance parties on Lake Travis have been in the past, this time we want to make sure everyone who lives downtown can see us and be jealous. Basically we're going OVERBOARD. Get it..? Hipsters Overboard!

We want everyone to go completely "overboard" in their very finest hipster outfits. So, if you're already part of Austin's Red River set, you know what I'm talking about.

For those of you who are Alamo Drafthouse fans and don't hang our at Beauty Bar every night or own a pair of those unbearably skinny jeans, here's your chance to have a go at it. American Apparel Deep V necks go without saying. Dunks (google it) are a must. But why stop with the outfit? Accessorize it, people! Add on some chains. Wear sunglasses at night (but make sure they're Supers). Add a silk scarf, and wear it loose around your neck. Don't wash your hair for two days, and grow a beard. Then go buy a moped (not a scooter), and ride that to the party. Go overboard in your enthusiasm, get it? Yeah. Now you've got the spirit.
