Comic Relief Zero: An Everything Is Terrible! Stand-Up Special!
UP Comedy Club (230 W. North Ave, Chicago)
May 16th
8 PM
Chicago! One night only! Come see a sneak peek of the newest, yet to be released, EIT! movie - made entirely out of unforgivable stand-up comedy!
"Gentlemen and Gentlemen, it is time to sit down and shut up! But seriously folks, sit down and shut up, because those dumb-faced, narcissistic goof-troupers at Everything is Terrible! are dishing out their very first, hour-long stand-up comedy special, Comic Relief Zero! This special is the opposite of special, jam-packed with the most cringe-inducing set-ups and bomb-dropping punchlines ripped from their magnetic tape time capsules! Today’s hottest ventriloquists, racists, prop comics, sexists, impersonators, homophobes, and talk show hosts wish this footage was still in the landfills! The streets will run blue with women wisecracks, fat people puns, and homelessness gags galore! Are you oppressed and underrepresented in society? Well then, watch out! Let’s pull back the banana peel and take a head-first descent into the brick wall of our own mind! Take my life... please! Am I right?
Everything Is Terrible! is ashamed to bring you, Comic Relief Zero: An Everything Is Terrible! Stand-Up Special! The fur-covered, glitter-smothered gang from EIT! will emcee the festivities, bringing all the costumed merriment that has made EIT! live shows (in)famous! Outrageously funny! Totally clean!"
2012 HOLIDAY TOURS!!!
To celebrate the end of mankind, we are doing the impossible! We are going to be spreading Holiday Cheer ON 2 TOURS AT THE SAME TIME! What the fuck?! As always, we will appear live to present each evening's festivities in all of our fur-covered glory! Every stage will be converted into the tackiest winter wonderland imaginable with puppets, sing-a-longs, candy, fake snow, and a visit from the big man himself! This truly will be a Cataclysmic Transformation!

EIT! IS COMING TO IRELAND! via skype
GOOP of the GODS!
EIT's Commodore Gilgamesh and Bobby Nintendo (the brain behind our DVDs) present GOOP of the GODS! A new series of spiritual wellness videos! They will make you better!
THE COMMODORE & GHOULIE NEED UR HELP!
Commodore Gilgamesh and Ghoul Skool have decided to try something that has never been done before and ask; what if this time around we made a movie composed ENTIRELY out of dog related found footage? What if this magickal movie (made up of thousands of other dog movies) was also a remake of Jodorowsky's 1973 masterpiece, 'The Holy Mountain?' And what if we went on the road performing an all new live show that picked up where Cirque Du Soleil and The Rock-A-Fire Explosion left off? And what if we could reward people who help us make this happen by offering tons of cool stuff in return for their support? What if we were not kidding about any of this and it actually happened?!
From what we've seen thus far, we can assure you that the history of cinema is essentially a never ending spiral of World-Pup winning, sunglasses-wearing, murder-solving skateboarding dawgs. And that is fucking amazing.
Like everything we do, it's a labor of love. All we are asking is to help us break even. We knew from the get-go that thousands of dog-themed VHS tapes, crazy handmade dog costumes, and DVD mass-producing would be pricey, but with your guys' help it could make it all possible a lot sooner and with no compromises. Plus anyone who donates $20 or more gets something (we think) really cool in return!
To help, go to
Thanks dawgggz!
EIT! TAKES OVER YETI MAGAZINE!
Thanks to the coolest dude in the world, Mike McGonigal over at Yeti Publishing, we went apeshit and did 36 PAGES of art, writing, photos, and all sorts of Jerry Maguoria! He even let us do the cover! Order now and be a happier person than you were just moments before!
EVERTHING IS WHACK!
EIW!, at Chicago's Beauty Bar on Sunday (1/23/11) at 9PM, features a totally radical blend of obscure and off-kilter music mashed with the insanity inducing found footage visual fuckfest of Everything Is Terrible!'s Yonder Vittles, Commodore Gilgamesh, and The Intern. It is guaranteed to be an ear-bleeding, eye-scratching-out, head fuck of a dance party featuring the sounds of Odd Obsessions' UnRad Brian, Ruffy, and Tuffy. Fun, fun, fun!
You should come to this. ARF! ARF!
fuck you... i love you
Hey Cincinnati! EIT! will be screening some mother fucking videos at The Mockbee (2260 Central Parkway) next Saturday (November 27th n' shit!)! It might just be totally sweet n' shit!

WHAM CITY COMEDY TOUR!
The wonderful folks at Wham City are doing a comedy tour and it is coming to Chicago on Sunday, November 14th at 9 PM! And motherfucking EIT! is opening for them! Seriously, this is going to be a night that you will feel with all of your being. Either come to The Hideout (354 W Wabansia St) or miss out on the comedic weirdness of David Bowie, Showbeast, Dan Deacon, Egg Schrader (an actual egg), April Camlin, Tim Allen, the Creepers, and so much more. Buy lots of tickets now! Don't forget to bring those fourth and fifth eyes of yers. Oh yeah, and if you don't live in Chicago, go to one of these other places and see this show.
IT'S THE A-KNOP-ALYPSE!
Paul Knop. It sends shivers down the tiny spines of children who dare speak his name. Part man, part vampire, part gym teacher- Kount Knop is a master of the Midwest macabre and his short films will be played this Saturday October 16th at the world famous Cinefamily (co-presented by EIT!)
But that's not all! ROB SCHRAB (Sarah Silverman Program, Scud: The Disposable Assassin) and DAN HARMON (Community) are gonna be there to present and entertain you throughout! If you missed their amazingly crazy show at The Everything Is Festival, then this really is the only way to redeem yourself.
Also, remember THIS? Well, we're doing it. We're playing Chester Turner's SOV classic 'BLACK DEVIL DOLL FROM HELL' as part of the same show. Now that's more bang fer 'yer boner.

EVERYTHING IS FESTIVAL!
Imagine a weekend where all your fantasies come true. A weekend where you can just be...free. Laugh until your sides literally split open, and feel as cool as a skateboarding, shade-tippin' dog. We're talking about the festival to end all film festivals -- Everything Is Festival! (aka the 10th Annual Gathering Of The Terribles)! For reasons beyond our control (God's plan), we at Cinefamily are giving the found footage freaks... at Everything Is Terrible! free range of the weekend, and letting them do whatever the hell they want (note: we did have to say “no” to the all-night helicopter foam party). This makes it the official L.A. premiere of their latest mash-up feature-length film, 2Everything 2Terrible 2: Tokyo Drift, not to mention some of EIT!’s favorite movies in their uncut glory, plus dance parties, BBQs, a return of the Cinefamily Found Footage Battle Royal, and top-secret über-rare prints from the vaults of Cinefamily and Austin, TX’s famous Alamo Drafthouse! If that wasn't enough to drench your dick, EIT! will also be playing assorted madness from all their favorite pals they've met on their mystical journey: TV Carnage, Waverly Films, Rob Schrab, Black Magic Roller Coaster and tons more! Overall, we promise it will be the most fun you'll ever have at this dump! Think Sundance, but for discerning slobs like you! Swag-bags for folks who buy weekend passes! The only thing we ask is to bring along your old friend...Imagination!
DAY ONE (August 28th):
- Spend the day with EIT! and friends as we play tons of unseen gems, old friends, etc. focusing on KIDS, CHRISTIAN MADNESS, AND BORING STUFF!
