LOS ANGELES, CA, (June 10, 2008) –KABLUEY, a unique heartfelt indie comedy will be released in select theatres this summer. KABLUEY stars an ensemble cast led by Lisa Kudrow (“Friends”), Teri Garr (Tootsie), Christine Taylor (Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story), Conchata Ferrell (“Two and a Half Men”), Chris Parnell (“Saturday Night Live”) and Jeffrey Dean Morgan (“Grey’s Anatomy”), among others. With the idea conceived on an airplane, Scott Prendergast wrote, directed and acted in the film based on his personal experiences as a bad babysitter for his brother's kids.
Kudrow plays the
mother of two rambunctious young boys, barely holding things together
while her husband’s National Guard unit is off fighting in Iraq.
Desperate for some help, she lets her husband's brother, Salman
(Prendergast) move in and act as make-shift nanny. But his parenting
skills are lacking and soon all hell breaks loose. In order to keep the
family afloat, Salman takes a job as a corporate mascot, spending his
days baking in the heat of a ridiculous giant blue costume. However the
suit’s anonymity offers him a fresh start and surprising new
opportunities to keep the family together.
KABLUEY opens in
select cities including New York on July 4th at the Cinema Village, Los
Angeles on July 11th at Laemmle's Sunset 5, Austin on July 25th at the
Dobie Theatre and in San Francisco on August 1st at the Lumiere.
This is
Prendergast’s first feature film after having created “Anna is Being
Stalked" and "The Delicious," as well as three other short films that
have screened at over 40 film festivals including Sundance. He was also
a staff writer on MTV’s “Celebrity Deathmatch.”
