About Party Monster

The New York club scene of the 80s and 90s was a world like no other. Into this candy-colored, mirror ball playground stepped Michael Alig, a wannabe from nowhere special.

Party Monster is a 2003 comedy crime film directed by Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato. Its themes are money, male friendship, hallucination, and nightclub.

Macaulay Culkin stars as Michael Alig, Seth Green as James St. James, Chloƫ Sevigny as Gitsy, and Natasha Lyonne as Brooke. It runs 98 minutes and was released in September 2003.
