The Shuroo Process cannot decide what kind of movie it wants to be. The film stars Fiona Dourif as Parker Schaefer, an infamously fearless magazine writer who has finally gone off the rails. As we join the story, Parker has returned from what we can fairly assume was a binge. Parker is a fast talking mess and it doesn’t take long for her husband, who we only meet this one time, to clock her as drunk and high. He’s leaving, as we can see he’s all packed, and he’s taking the kids that are implied but never seen.
Instead of waiting for her husband to leave however, Parker throws herself out of the house and goes to stay with a friend. Parker has a red carpet event on this night and given the state that she’s already in, it’s no surprise that it goes horribly wrong. When Parker accepts her award she’s falling down drunk and rambling about conspiracy theories. The speech ends with Parker face down on the stage, her dress nearly over her head and her butt on display to the world. All of this is played with distinctly arch, comic tone.
