This Film Should Not Exist

| 23 June 2020 (USA)

THIS FILM SHOULD NOT EXIST is a slight-of-hand trick replete with all the details of a rock documentary. Archival footage from the orgiastic 1995 tour with The Oblivians and stories of everyday life leads the audience down a familiar path, and with a delicately insistent grin, transports us somewhere else completely. Echoing the artistic path taken by Ben Wallers, the film winds through the underground world of the 1990's garage rock band Country Teasers to form a portrait of a man, musician, and leader.

Helllins

It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

Casey Duggan

It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

Raymond Sierra

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Phillipa

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
