While actor and comedian Pauly Shore is best known to audiences for mid-’90s comedy hits like “Encino Man,” “Bio Dome,” and “Son in Law,” the poofy-haired funny man has also spent the past few years dabbling in directing. In 2003, he released the strange comedy “Pauly Shore Is Dead,” in which he ostensibly faked his own death (for fun?), followed by 2009’s frankly hard to explain documentary “Adopted.” Next up: a dark, unhinged short film in which Shore also stars as a serial killer.
In “Sin City Psycho,” Shore plays Donavan, who is (per the short’s official synopsis), “driven to madness … [he] preys on Sin City’s unfaithful flock by tangling them into a web of torture where broken vows could mean broken bones.

Project Name: Adopted
Asking For: $49,999 on Kickstarter
Amount Raised Thus Far (At Time Of Post): $36,165
Days Remaining In Campaign (At Time Of Post): 5
Description: When adopting a child, make sure you check all the right boxes, or you might end up like Ben and Julie Adams. The Adamses are the main characters in Adopted, a web series currently seeking the funding it needs for its second season.
In the first episode of Adopted, Ben and Julie learn the 16-month-old boy they thought they were adopting is actually a 16-year-old, thanks to a mis-checked box during the adoption process. The rest of the season follows the son, Kofi, as he adjusts to his new life. At the same time, we watch Ben and Julie get used to a child who, in their eyes, skipped the majority of his childhood. The first season ran for 11 episodes total; they're all available on the series' official website.
