About me: The Darwin Awards is available to own on DVD from June 25th 2007
The Darwin Awards is a phenomenon of human stupidity that never ceases to surprise and entertain. With an all star cast that includes Winona Ryder, Joseph Fiennes, David Arquette, Chris Penn and Metallica, this film version hilariously captures a world of idiocy.
Michael Burrows (Joseph Fiennes) is a brilliant but overly cautious forensic detective, who decides to turn his fascination with the awards into a vocation. He is paired with Siri Taylor (Winona Ryder) a take-no prisoners insurance claims investigator, and together they take a road trip to see if they can create a personality profile of potential Darwin Award types.
Featuring re-enactments of some of the most famous entries to the Darwin Awards roster, The Darwin Awards is a great comedy about the extremes only a few human beings dare to pursue.
The Darwin Awards continues to be a phenomenon, particularly online. The Darwin Awards website www.darwinawards.com generates thousands of visits and interest from around the world.
