Bio-Dome
Bio-Dome is a 1996 movie starring
Pauly Shore and Stephen Baldwin and directed by Jason Bloom. The story centers on two men named Bud and Doyle and their experience inside a "bio-dome", a form of a
closed ecological system. Shore won a
Golden Raspberry Award as worst actor for his performance in the 1996 Golden Raspberry Awards.
Bizarrely, the film has a cult following, and even more bizarrely, not from Shore's on-screen antics as much as from the mannerisms of his co-star, Baldwin. Stephen Baldwin's near perfect rendition of a late '90's unemployed Californian slacker has become famous.
