Paris, TN - The world premiere of a demolition derby documentary movie called "Derby Madness! ® The Movie" will be held at 7 p.m. Saturday, March 7 at the Krider Performing Arts Center in Paris. Admission is free to the public and attendees are encouraged to arrive early to ensure availability of seating.
"DERBY MADNESS! ® The Movie" stars promoter Mike Weatherford, of Paris, and his rag-tag group of drivers and officials who travel to various small towns in Western Tennessee and Kentucky for the Derby Madness® demolition derby competitions.

The movie, produced by DuMedia Lighthouse, also stars Bill Reagor, Max Parrish, Wes Gargus, and many others in the Derby Madness® crew.

Filmmakers John Dudley and William Middleton spent one year following the officials, car builders and drivers and have created an exciting, heart-felt and action-packed documentary. "Along with many car smashes, including lots of smoke and fire, we've put together some very compelling footage of what goes on behind-the-scenes and in the dramatic lives of the drivers and officials. It was a pleasure getting to know these people and making this movie. We've done our best to capture the crazy, car-crashing world of demolition derby!" says John Dudley.

The Krider Performing Arts Center (KPAC) is located at 650 Volunteer Drive in Paris, TN 38242. The website for KPAC is www.kridercenter.com.
