A video I shot a few years ago. The neighbors of a friend had left so we used the abandoned place to smoke and drink, it was covered in garbage. The landlord got wise so we decided to shoot a short there before it was too late. I went to my friends house that day while he finished work. There was no script, even idea. Just a shark head. I hadn’t slept the night before so I took a nap while I waited for him to return from work, and then, in that state between waking and dream it came to me. ATLANTIS. Here it is. My acting debut, I retired later that night.

Starring: Hart, Darrell Smith, Geoff Clifford, Mellissa, O.J. and Elysha.

TAWDRY HOME.

This is a scene from the Rainer Werner Fassbinder film Beware Of A Holy Whore (1971). I love the ‘I’m going to Rome’ argument, especially when it dies down only to return. The whole scene is great.

H.R. GIGER documentary in four parts.

There is a documentary on the design and making of Alien by H.R. Giger called Giger’s Alien that I just watched as an extra on the above dvd but cannot find on youtube (Though there are similar ones) I will upload it in a few days. It’s good.

The director on director series by Faber and Faber is the best set of director interview books out there.  BMV is the best store for used books.  I found the Cronenberg on Cronenberg book at BMV for $8.99 the other day.  Inside was a signature by Cronenberg himself made out to Joseph.  Fuck you Joseph.
