Based on celebutante James St. James' book ''Disco Bloodbath,'' ''Monster'' chronicles the drug-addled club culture while telling the story of Michael Alig (Macaulay Culkin), a self-absorbed ''club kid'' and party promoter who ended up brutally murdering his drug-pushing roommate, then admitting it on TV. Seth Green plays St. James; directors Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato also directed 1998's identically titled Emmy-winning documentary.
