Synopsis

FILM GEEK is a hilarious new comedy about Scotty Pelk (Melik Malkasian), a socially inept video store clerk with an encyclopedic knowledge of film. He runs a website, scottysfilmpage.com, which receives zero traffic. He annoys his customers. He annoys his co-workers. And when he is inevitably fired from his video store job, Scotty finds refuge in Niko (Tyler Gannon), a downtown hipster who teaches him a thing or two about love and life. But Niko's smarmy ex-boyfriend Brandon (Matt Morris) won't go away quietly. As Scotty's first love turns to obsession, his life begins to change in profound ways.
