When Kevin Smith brought Clerks to Sundance 1994, it helped birth a wave of low budget, independent filmmaking. It also birthed the career of Kevin Smith, which since then has lead to very mixed results. Smith’s story proved fertile enough to compel writer/director Christopher Downie to make Shooting Clerks, the story of how Kevin Smith bravely… shot Clerks.

The project’s origins can be traced back a little over a year to this failed IndieGoGo campaign; however, since then the film appears to have been made with the participation of some familiar Kevin Smith faces. The trailer embedded below features most of the main players from Smith’s Clerks film recreated for a faux behind-the-scenes montage. Paying close attention, you can spot Comic Book Men‘s Mike Zapcic and The Angry Video Game Nerd‘s James Rolfe among the faces, but reportedly the man himself, Kevin Smith, will cameo as a newspaper reporter, and provide narration for the film.

Check out the trailer for Shooting Clerks below:

After taking home the Grand Jury Prize for Documentary at this year’s Sundance Film Festival, the upcoming documentary The Wolfpack has released a series of videos as a thank you note to the film festival. These thank you videos feature the six Angulo Brothers from The Wolfpack, sweding classic films including The Blair Witch Project, Clerks, El Mariyachi & The Usual Suspects. The prize-winning documentary was acquired by Magnolia Pictures and is expected to debut in 2015.

The Wolfpack is the first documentary from director Crystal Moselle. The forthcoming film features the Angulo family, who are kept locked away from society in a Lower East Side apartment by a domineering father. The Angulo siblings learn about the outside world through the movies they see and swede using homemade props and costumes. Life for the Angulos changes drastically when one brother leaves the apartment and explores New York.

Check out the Angulo Brothers’ swedes of iconic movies below:

The Blair Witch Project

Clerks

The Usual Suspects

El Mariachi
