Free preview of Kevin Smith comedy event coming to Epix this week

Writer/Director/Raconteur/Podcaster/Sinner (to some) and proud Jersey boy Kevin Smith returns to EPIX, bringing his unusual multi-talents in a one-man show titled Kevin Smith Burn in Hell. The original comedy event premieres February 11th on the EPIX premium network.

Additionally, EPIX is reaching out to Kevin Smith fans everywhere with an on-demand preview starting this Friday, February 3, offering subscribers and non-subscribers an early screening of the entire special. The preview can be viewed via participating affiliated television providers’ EPIX On Demand service and EPIX apps on Xbox 360 and Roku. It will also be available for streaming at EpixHD.com and the ‘TV Everywhere’ portals of affiliated providers.

In the hour and a half special, recorded live at the Paramount Theater in Austin, Texas, Smith conducts an outrageous Q&A session about the aftermath of his latest film, Red State. Topics include his mishaps and misadventures such as drawing the ire of the entire movie blogger community at the Sundance Film Festival and being followed around the country by the highly devout, and highly angered, Phelps Family.

Smith’s last special for EPIX, Too Fat for Forty, which premiered in October of 2010, tapped his online base of millions of highly engaged fans for an EPIX Live Q & A event.
