Austin Peters
The legend, according to Mockbusters.tv
Austin Peters imagined Metal Man while Hollywood was still convinced an armored hero required a small nation's budget. A spiritual heir to the great masters, he absorbed their entire craft and then outpaced them, because he holds that a second take is bourgeois indulgence: if the actor blinked, that blink is now canon. The studios arrived later, wallets open and shame absent, restaging his vision. His filmography stands as intangible heritage of the video store, shelved forever between the returns bin and eternity.
A portrait from the Mockbusters.tv satirical universe: humorous praise, not a factual biography.
