Palin Documentary a box office bomb

You know I try to avoid talking about Griftzilla, but this is too funny, in a sad way. Palin's documentary debuted in California to an empty house. No really. Not a single person showed up to watch it except a reporter who wanted to interview the, as it turned out non-existent, audience.

Now to be fair, the Harry Potter movie opened that night as well, so maybe all the Palin fans went to that. Though I'm not aware that her "real Murkin base" are Potter fans, witchcraft and all that, maybe their kids begged to go. Or maybe they didn't want to battle the hordes of Potter fans. Still, rather an embarrassing opening night. Makes me wonder what happened in the other cities that were granted the privilege to screen it.
