There was a link on another board. I immediately recognized his style. I dunno, it's very good, but *whatever*. Time to move on, I say.

Love the teaser, I have it on his Director's series DVD. The whole thing looks delightfully fucked up. The Aphex Twin soundtrack is genius (as is everything about Mr Richard D. James).

I've a feeling that if Cunningham could deal with the idea of making "proper" films, he'd do very well; his somewhat detached style reminds me a little of Kubrick.

I found the film on slsk, it's...meh. The ending, with the mashed up face-and-meat-against-glass bits, is great. But the previous four or five minutes feel like a step backwards really.

Anyone actually bought the dvd? What's the book like?
