New York Underground Film Festival
The New York Underground Film Festival was an annual event that occurred each March at Anthology Film Archives in New York City from 1994 through 2008 founded by filmmakers Todd Phillips ('' Road Trip'', '' Old School'') and Andrew Gurland. After Phillips and Gurland turned the festival over to programmer Ed Halter, it became noted for documentary and experimental film programming, and occasionally courted controversy, particularly in its early years. Some of these have included: premiering the North American Man/Boy Love Association (NAMBLA) documentary, '' Chicken Hawk: Men Who Love Boys'', in 1994; premiering a film in 1995 that accused Quentin Tarantino of plagiarism; being protested by Reverend Fred Phelps in 2002 (apparently for not choosing to show a film about Phelps); and premiering a theatrical version of Brad Neely's Harry Potter parody ''Wizard People, Dear Reader'', which eventually led to action by Warner Brothers to suppress future theatrical performances of the wo ...
