"A Cult Classic in the Making"

You might be wondering how the heck we got here?... 2006... a Los Angeles based, English filmmaker, amusing himself on the interweb stumbles upon an article on the BBC comedy blog...

The world's worst stand-up?
An odd tale from Los Angeles... Here's a bizarre footnote to the annals of comedy history.
Useless stand-up Gaylord Dingler showed up at the open mic night at the Los Angeles Comedy Store every week for 27 years. But then, all of sudden, he vanished. Whatever became of him? The truth behind the bizarre story has been revived by stand-up Todd Munson...

After almost laughing his head off - tempered by uncomfortable spasms of utter disbelief - our Englishman tracks down the 'up and coming' stand-up comedian Munson... and against their better judgement, they plunge head first into the shark-pool that is the Hollywood comedy scene; to make a film.... about the little known Hollywood comedy legend who vanished off of the face of the earth... the man they called Gaylord Dingler... the man dubbed the World's Worst Stand Up Comedian.
