"I'm OK, You're A Cyborg" to show at NXNW


"I'm OK, You're A Cyborg" will make it's North American premiere at this year's North by Northwest festival (the festival was formerly known as simply the "North Film Festival", but it's moniker was changed when the founder [Alan Smithie] moved back into his parent's basement, located a little more "left" on the map.) When asked if this name change will be too confusing for fans, Alan Smithie was quoted as saying, "Shut up."

"I'm OK, You're A Cyborg" (IOYAC to slow typing fans) is the spiritual sequel to the 1989 Jean Cleaude van Damme film "Cyborg". It follows the activities of a mental patient with disturbingly faint eyebrows, weird bangs, and a neck condition that is a HAM radio hobbyist in her spare time (see picture). She gets tips from a cop named Murphy (played by Peter Weller) *spoiler alert* Some things happen and occasionally there is some dialog where things are said. Oh, and a conclusion is reached. *end spoiler*
