Sinopsis
The classic avant garde masterpiece, now re-mixed in 5.1 surround sound. This DVD realizes the version of Eskimo that The Residents originally visualized back in 1979. Features 25 minutes of additional material (Easter Eggs.) When the Residents first released ESKIMO in 1979, it was well known that the inspiration for the album originated with actual Intuit field recordings made by the group's mentor, The Mysterious N. Senada. What has not been known until this time, is that Mr. Senada was also an amateur photographer, and, along with the tapes of Eskimo chanting, dogs howling and wind, were two undeveloped rolls of film! Now they are synchronized to the remixed music!
A filmmaker is upset to find out that his wholesome script about an orphan and his dog has been warped into a film about strippers.
HWY: An American Pastoral is a film by Jim Morrison, Frank Lisciandro, Paul Ferrara, and Babe Hill and stars Morrison as a hitchhiker. It is a 50-minute experimental film in Direct Cinema style. It was shot during the spring and summer of 1969 in the Mojave Desert and in Los Angeles.
Inspired by the Greek myth of Prometheus, a Titan who created the first mortals from clay and stole fire from the gods, Prometheus' Garden immerses viewers in a cinematic universe unlike any other. The dark and magical images of this haunting film unfold in a dreamlike stream of consciousness revealing an unlikely cast of characters engaged in a violent struggle for survival.
Explores the wildly fantastic world of legendary underground clay animator Bruce Bickford. Traces the origins of his remarkably unique sensibility, journeying back to Bickford's childhood in a competitive household during the paranoia of the Cold War. Finally, the film examines Bickford's relationship with his father, George, who is grappling with the onset of Alzheimer's Disease.
In 2003, the eccentric rock band Primus returned from a four-year recording and touring hiatus with a new collection of material, ANIMALS SHOULD NOT ACT LIKE PEOPLE, and a supporting tour dubbed the Tour de Fromage. BLAME IT ON THE FISH documents the tour in typical Primus (i.e. weird) fashion with an appropriately bizarre collection of live-performance clips, interviews, and behind-the-scenes footage, as well as bonus material that includes a "futuristic" mockumentary that reimagines the band 60 years into the future.
Finally, a DVD with attitude! Hear and see the Primus drummer break down go-go, funk patterns, the ostinato and the up-down technique in Brain's contemporary and alternative way. This DVD is not only educational, but entertaining as well. Suitable for all levels of playing. DVD special features include a photo gallery, additional video footage (outtakes, village video, influences, the Buckethead dance, Q/A), an interactive drumset, and printable lessons from Brain.
The first live DVD from Claypool, Primus' main man; a complete concert from his 2006 Summer tour with band. The tour was in support of Claypool's then current cd release of "Whales and Woe" and features material from the album. In addition to being a virtuoso bass player for Primus, Les Claypool purveys his punk-funk sound in side projects like Sausage, the Frog Brigade, Oysterhead, Les Claypool and the Holy Mackerel, and his own solo career. This concert film captures Claypool in a live performance culled from his 2006 tour for that year's solo album, OF WHALES AND WOE.
About a half dozen slacker dudes dwell at their jobs at Los Enchiladas, the local Mexican sit-down joint. The 2 folks in "management" are both into their own authority and fill their days creating wild & stupid rules for the working folk. By mid-film, however, the manager has fled the cops after beating the crap out of a competing restaurant's dancing gyro... and the "Chef" has jumped ship to join a beatnik poet's groups which specializes in exotic menu-writing. This leaves the minimum-wage crowd to run the place as they see fit.... and they see a lot of debauchery, booze, and free steak in their future.
Jake Jones rescues a young bison in the 1800s, and becomes known as the folk hero Buffalo Jones as he rides Samson through many exploits.
Best known as the bass-playing frontman of punk-funk pioneers Primus, fringe-art genius Les Claypool has expanded his journeys into musical madness with a myriad of collaborative side projects. 5 GALLONS OF DIESEL presents a collection of live performances, music videos, behind-the-scenes footage, and other bonus material from Claypool's non-Primus ventures, including Oysterhead, Colonel Claypool's Bucket of Bernie Brains, Sausage, Frog Brigade, and Holy Mackerel.
Several pieces of Frank Zappa's music are set against clay animation by Bruce Bickford.
This two-disc package features a CD of five new songs and a DVD that brings together every Primus music video plus unreleased live performances and more. The CD/DVD Animals Should Not Try To Act Like People (Interscope Records), to be released October 7, 2003, finds After trailblazing their way through the alternative rock boom of the early 1990s, Primus took a four-year break after more than a decade together. In 2003 the original line-up of the band reconvened to test the waters, with spectacular results. This release celebrates their reunion by including every video from their halcyon days, as well as live material and behind the scenes footage.

Las principales preocupaciones de los miembros de la banda son la búsqueda de groupies y el deseo de cobrar.
