DOPE (1968) Documentary (DVD)

GUTTERBALLS; DVD DVD, New Canadian splatter comedy GUTTERBALLS (2008) is a damn fine sexually explicit, graphically violent, morally repugnant, willfully bad B-Movie that refreshingly takes itself seriously, despite the over-the-top subject matter.  Heads will bowl..... DVD release on Australian 'Bad Movies' independent label.

THE JESUS LIZARD; Club (2011) DVD Live DVD (2011) Though it's impossible to properly convey just how ferocious a live band the Jesus Lizard are, particularly in smaller confines, Club does an admirable job capturing the quartet's first stateside show in more than ten years, in July 2009.  The band's original line-up touch upon every full-length and EP they released, demonstrating how strongly their songs, including torching versions of "Killer McHann" and "One Evening," stand up today. There's actually nothing dated or putridly nostalgic about this exercise; the Jesus Lizard are like an ageless, un-caged animal with scores to settle and points to prove, particularly since they went out rather unceremoniously in 1999 as a weakened, incomplete unit.  Yow proves to be a consistant menace, half-naked and threatening the audience in the midst of songs like "Mouthbreather," as he rolls over and through them like a possessed man caught in a whirlwind.  Club reveals much about their reunion tour – most notably that it felt like they'd never stopped playing together in the first place.
