Severed Head Network

This is a compilation of independent and experimental films. Not good ones either. The first one is 6 minutes of droning electronic sounds, just at the cusp of being music. Then there’s cows being slaughtered and disemboweled intermixed with people writing covered in blood. Additionally, there’s a pumpkin having sex with a cross. The second one is a music video with a girl writhing around and taking her clothes off to a stupid electronic beat. To call it a “music” video is an insult to my musicianship. Number 3 is a couple sitting on a bed while poetry is being read by the narrator. They get naked and she whips out a Polaroid and they do “it”. There’s a black and white rape scene that cuts in and out (no pun intended) from the original scene, and then the girl strangles the guy from the original film. Movie 4 is about a tough-guy running and falling down and then finding a gun and continuing to run while pretending to shoot – again a music video with electronic noise. #5 is a black and white film shot at night. Guy shows up at a house and girl runs out all crying and carrying an axe. Seriously, that’s it. Next movie, grandpa pretends to be old, but is a clubber or so he thinks while he’s spacing out buying groceries for his wife. The next one is a musical where all the character wear animal hats and sing songs that a 3rd grader must have written. The next one is a music video with actual music and a skin head smashing things. Don’t waste your time or money on this DVD unless one of your kids has a film featured on it, in which case, disown your kid.
