The trailer for a new documentary about Susan Powter called “Stop the Insanity: Finding Susan Powter,” has arrived.
Stop the Insanity: Finding Susan Powter, executive produced by Jamie Lee Curtis and directed by Zeberiah Newman, picks up years after the 67-year-old disappeared from her pop culture pedestal. After rocketing to international fame via her popular 1993 Stop the Insanity! infomercial, Powter amassed — and lost — a reported $200 million in business deals.
Now living in Las Vegas and working as an Uber Eats driver, Powter opens up in the film about endurance, and what her life looks like after, as the documentary poses, shady management and legal associates drained her finances.
Executive producer Jamie Lee Curtis (who knows a thing or two about hawking diet foods and living like a fierce diva with short hair and comebacks) calls the film “an indictment of how we discard human beings.” Check out the trailer after jump!
