SIX in AUSTIN

"Six in Austin" features six distinct stories set in present day Austin and had its World Premiere at the South by Southwest Film Festival in March of 2002. The six segments were made by Kat Candler, Nathan & David Zellner, Gonzo Gonzales, Wyatt & Zach Phillips, Geoff Marslett, and Bob Ray. The film went on to screen at The Dallas Video Festival in April of 2002, before returning to Austin for a one-week run at the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema.

Bob Ray's segment, "Wrecked," is a darkly comedic revenge flick that tells the tale of Nathan, an overworked computer programmer with a hyperactive imagination. Amidst the dot com demise, Nathan overhears a list of friends to be laid off by their sleazy dictator-like boss and this propels Nathan into a violent frenzy of hallucination and murder.

"Wrecked" is being released as a short film in October of 2002 and this director's-cut version of its "Six in Austin" counterpart features an additional two minutes of footage that was cut due to time constraints.
