Accountability by Shame

I’d like to develop a new style of documentary/guerilla filmmaking that delivers immediate and lasting public humiliation against terrible people. Imagine watching a talking head documentary like Waiting for Superman or Hot Coffee build a case against a deplorable figure - maybe a politician or a lobbyist or a CEO. As we learn more and more about his awful behavior, it becomes clear that this person will likely never be brought to justice. He is too rich, his friends too powerful, and special interest groups have been installing shitty legislation on his behalf for decades now. As the case begins to feel hopeless and the victims appear ever helpless, we cut to a scene in front of the greedy/awful/pervert/asshole’s house and a 285lb UFC champ rings the doorbell. The asshole cracks open the door and is immediately choke slammed and beaten beyond recognition by the champ. Ground and pound on the Welcome mat.

If the show were on Fox we could call the series “F*cked Up!” a nice little double entendre that captures what the asshole did to others and what eventually happens to his face by the end of the show. If violence is too brutal, maybe we pelt the asshole with eggs and tomatoes for an hour or so, OR we could always have some huge dude (perhaps said UFC Champ) bang his mom while he watches. Some form of irreparable damage to the ego that he will never live down. No chance for backroom deals or secret arbitration rulings, let’s watch this piece of shit get his. 

Traditional documentaries are great at getting the word out and raising awareness, but I’m craving swift justice. Surely there are legal ways to shame and humiliate someone beyond repair. Who’s got ideas?
