I Got Bombed at Harvey's (SXSW)

I Got Bombed at Harvey's is a gripping documentary-drama about one of the most audacious crimes in American history. In 1980, a bomber wheeled 1,000 pounds of dynamite into Harvey's Wagon Wheel Casino in Lake Tahoe, demanding $3 million in ransom. This film follows the tense 24-hour standoff as the bomb squad races to disarm the explosive, the FBI scrambles to deliver the ransom, and unexpected twists reveal darker motives behind the scheme.

Directed by Amy Bandlien Storkel and Bryan Storkel, this World Premiere official selection at the South by Southwest festival brings a fascinating piece of true crime history to life with compelling storytelling and expert filmmaking. Perfect for fans of heist stories, crime documentaries, and edge-of-your-seat thrillers.

This is an official SXSW event presented at Alamo Lamar, featuring 3 credits and priority access for badge and wristband holders.
