The film Party Monster, which I just reviewed, was a very bad version of the somewhat interesting true story of how Michael Alig went from being a New York nightlight celebrity to a convicted murderer.  One of the biggest problems with the film was Macauley Culkin’s dull performance as Alig.

As bonus to my review of Party Monster, here’s a 1994 episode of — ugh —  Geraldo, featuring Alig, the Club Kids, and the soon-to-be-deceased Angel.  Alig and his club kids still come across as if they’re trying way too hard to be outrageous (they’re the ultimate conforming nonconformists) and I will warn you that watching this clip will mean spending 44 minutes with one of the most fatuous media personalities in American history.  But still, this episode does feature a look at the story that Party Monster totally screwed up.  Just two years after this episode aired, Alig would kill Angel and dismember him in a bathtub.
