"I'm Stephen Montgomery. If you move me I'll die!"My 2nd in my 'Halloween Scenes' line of posts, this is a quick 5 second Halloween appearance in Director David Wain's 2nd theatrical film The Ten.
The movie is basically a series of 10 sketches built around the Ten Commandments with each sketch dealing with a different commandment.
As for the scene: lampooning media frenzies, this is 'EB' ("Entertainment Beat") covering a little girl who dressed up as Stephen Montgomery for Halloween.
Who's Stephen Montgomery?
A man who jumped out an airplane without a parachute, survived the impact into the earth, but is fated to live his days in that very spot... because if you move him he'll die.
It makes more sense in the movie.
The Ten is a good time and something to be sought out for fans of MTV's sketch comedy show The State and the film Wet Hot American Summer as it features many of the Wain-players with a peppering of celebrity cameos. Paul Rudd, Liev Schreiber, Janeane Garofalo, Famke Janssen and even a pre-Mad Men Jon Hamm all make an appearance, if fleeting.
