BUFFET INFINITY is the next WTF Wednesday movie on May 27 at 7:30PM at the Capitol Theatre. Echoing the Canadian comedy classic ‘SCTV’ and picking from hundreds of hours of original, low-budget TV ads to tell the sinister tale of two restaurants battling it out in the fictional town of Westridge County. Ads for insurance, used car rivals, a local religious scholar, and a recording artist converge to tell the story of an expanding sinkhole, a cult, and an ever-growing restaurant that becomes unsettlingly sentient.
