Shut Up Little Man! An Audio Misadventure
Directed by Matthew Bate
A darkly comedic documentary that mines absurdity and pathos from a real-life recording of two feuding neighbors, exploring how accidental art emerges from chaos and human dysfunction.
In 1987, Eddie Lee Sausage and Mitch Deprey recorded the nightly squabbles of their over-the-top neighbors, homophobic Raymond Huffman and proudly gay Peter Haskett, and the chronicle of the pair's bizarre existence soon took on a life of its own. This darkly funny documentary checks in with former punks Eddie and Mitch, who detail their late-'80s Lower Haight surroundings, and surveys the tapes' influence on an array of underground artists.
