About They Want Dick Dickster (2018) — A Hollywood satire where one bad movie made a director enemies everywhere
Christopher Ray's 2018 comedy satire, They Want Dick Dickster, dives into the chaotic finale of a once-brilliant but now washed-up director whose career has crashed harder than his car into the Tinseltown gutter. Starring Robert R. Shafer in the title role, the film paints a brutally funny portrait of ego-clashing chaos as Dick Dickster's self-inflicted disasters pile up—unpaid mob debts, a vengeful ex-wife demanding alimony, a fresh statutory-rape investigation, and a hitman closing in.
The atmosphere crackles with the desperate energy of a Hollywood insider thriller meets farcical black comedy, where every punchline lands with the force of a falling studio light. Genres collide as cult-classic aspirations crumble under the weight of bad decisions, toxic relationships, and a D.A. who won't let bygone scandals die. With a runtime tight enough to keep the satire sharp and a cast led by genre veterans like Tim Russ and Melanie Good, this 90-minute ride balances outrageous humor with the biting realism of creative burnout and moral recklessness.
