An up-and-coming actor quickly discovers that he's not who he thinks he is.
Doug Avalanche is based on a true story of the beloved infomercial actor Doug Avalanche. Even though Mr. Avalanche is considered America's best and most persuasive television commercial actor, he wasn't always a household name. In fact, his name would send shivers down the spines of anyone who heard it. This is his inspiring story of rags to riches, from fighting punks to selling junk.
Doug Avalanche is a comedy short film that won the Best Short Film award based on a true story at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival.
Rodger Eger said, "The best musical to not have music."
Rodger Feder said, "Wooo wee, this wonderful movie got my nuts itchy!"
Roger Waters said, "Stop bloody asking me these silly questions. No movie will ever beat the masterpiece that is Doug Avalanche."
Doug Avalanche is James Rouleau's 3rd short film, made in his Junior Year of High School in 2019."
