This Week's Movie You've Probably Never Seen
Despiser (2003)

Every so often, in my viewing of crap, I get something that just defies description and is completely different than what I thought it would be. Don't get me wrong, this movie is terrible. But hidden in its terribleness is an unintentionally clever, almost artistic visual style. The film is extremely low-budget. However, it is heavy with unneeded special effects, such as something as simple as all four characters riding in a car is completely CGI'd except for the characters themselves. The result is a fairly original look. The plot is also pretty original with the main character trapped in a state of limbo with other people from different time periods who must find a way back to his life. This is the perfect example of why I find such great pleasure in low budget movies. Well done sirs!

Love, Biff.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This Week's Record You're Probably Not Listening To
Hartz Mountain - Parakeet Training Record (196?)

We hit an estate sale a few weeks back, and the woman who had lived in the house was apparently a bird enthusiast. I went there looking for records, and all they had were these bulky waltz box sets. But, tucked between a few of those was this gem, a 45 from what I'm guessing is the early 60's. It's basically a recording of a woman saying "Hello, baby" over and over. On the other side they have what is supposed to be an actual parakeet talking, but it's clearly some dude.
