The follow-up to Antonio Campos’ critically acclaimed Afterschool, Simon Killer is an erotic and and psychological portrait of Simon (Brady Corbet, Melancholia, Martha Marcy May Marlene), a well-educated, handsome and seemingly sympathetic college graduate with just a hint of something off putting enough to ignite a sense of concern.

While it's impossible to explain the experience of the Sundance Film Festival without actually being here in the cold and snow, there are some ways we can still give everyone a taste of what it's like to attend. For example, this video that was sent over by my friend Eric from IONCinema.com called "Shit People Say at Sundance 2012", featuring some guy named Alexander Norton. When you're here, you start to hear many phrases repeated over and over, many of them becoming quite iconic, legendary, and often amusing to hear. This video parodies many of those phrases and gives you a fun idea of what it's like to be here at the festival. This does feature expletives, of course, but it's funny and a perfect way to sum up the Sundance experience: I thought it was a humorous video to feature as the 2012 festival comes to an end this weekend.
