Pledge to Picnicface

Halifax sketch comedy troupe, Picnicface, have taken a creative approach to raising funding for their upcoming film, Rollertown, by asking for help from fans in exchange for some absurd services.

There are a couple of really good deals:
For $1 Picnicface will email you an autographed picture of Mark’s dick totally covered in jeans
For $20 Your name will be on the credit roll at the end of the movie, accompanied by any title for yourself that does not already exist (for example you can’t be “Key Grip” but you can be “Key Shark Puncher”)
For $500 Cheryl will let a stranger spit into her mouth

And there are a few premium pledges that might be worth pooling your money with some friends:
For $10,000 You can appear in the film and say a line OR Andy will study your behaviour for a day and then pretend to be you
For $100,000 You can die onscreen in the movie
For $250,000 You can choose any two members of the troupe, and they will get married. Legally. You can come to the ceremony if you want.
For $500,000 Mark Little will change his middle name to your full name

A full list of what they are willing to do for money can be found here, and if you would like to donate, click here.

Here’s the first ad they made for the fundraiser:

And here is the fake trailer (featuring an appearance by me that didn’t cost me $5000)
