Corey Feldman’s Documentary Whiffs Premiere Over Tech Issues
New York Post ^ | March 9, 2020 | Alex Heigl

Though strenuously hyped by Feldman, the premiere for the film — at least online — was hampered from the get-go, beset by an awkward interface and complaints on Twitter directed at Feldman himself. (He was screening the film live in LA concurrently.)

For $20, users were promised access to a live-stream of the film at 11 p.m. Monday, with a Q&A with Feldman to follow, and a second “screening” Tuesday afternoon. But, right up to the minute of the premiere, the film’s hashtag was mostly populated by fans either begging for or offering tech help with the various error messages.

Eventually, Feldman tweeted that “THE FILM IS STARTING 15 MIN LATE DUE 2 THE WEBSITE CRASHING! WHICH IS ACTUALLLY A GOOD THING!”

There are no coincidences.

I watched part of it last night. Apparently, a small number of people were able to get through. A lady on twitter streamed it and relayed it through her iPhone camera. Good enough quality to see and hear, but not good enough to read captions. But after 17 minutes, she got locked out and was not able to reenter. No names were mentioned in that first 17 minutes, just back story of his friend's spiral downward. Read later that those in the theater's audience was able to watch the entire doc. Claims were made that one person was named C.S. but I don't know for sure that's why I'm not repeating his name. If true, I imagine his name is being repeated by now.
