Bringing You the Lower Depths of Cinema

84 notes &

This little piece of heaven is why I love running a VHS blog. It showed up at my door today in an envelope with no return address. I peeled the package open expecting some tape I’d won on Ebay weeks ago and had forgotten about, but what was inside was the furthest thing from that possible. When I saw a white tape without a case I was skeptical to say the least, and after that whole Blood Frenzy DVD-R situation I get nervous every time something seems amiss with one of my packages. I pulled the blood-drenched video out and a huge smile immediately came to my face. It felt like I was six years old all over again and had just woken up on Christmas morning to find a Super Nintendo and a Ren and Stimpy game (you know, the one with that level where you’re in Stimpy’s nasty mouth) under my tree. Well, not quite that good. But I still was super giddy to pop this in. Because of the “Watch Me <3” my parents suspected it was some weird strip tease video from one of our many loyal female fans. Sadly and thankfully, it wasn’t. It was a “pseudo” (?) snuff short film.It featured a fake celebrity tied down and being tortured. It looked like it was shot on video, which is always a nice added bonus when it comes to newly made horror films. A guy, who looked like a grown up version of that one weird scummy rat kid from newer seasons of Degrassi, was torturing someone and forcing him to sign an autograph for him.
We find out two things about the tortured guy: he offers to fund this guy’s movie he is making, so he must be rich, and he is a pussy, because he pisses all over himself. Blood splashes on the camera a couple times and it all feels very realistic, which I assume is what they were going for. At the end, a website (http://piecesoftalent.com) flashes on the screen. After investigating that site I believe this is a marketing gimmick to advertise a feature-length film. A great gimmick, I might add. It got me 100% hooked and now I want more. I watched the trailer on the site and the movie looks really well-done. I’m hoping whenever it becomes available I get a copy. Wink. I urge everyone else to check out the website and keep your eyes peeled for when the movie is released.
