Purgatory (part 7)
The 7th and final part of my senior project video, a psychological horror/mystery/art film, I guess you could say. Fleeing from a disturbing sight in the Bureau of Open Affairs, the wife (Leia Caldoran) runs into the man (Anthony Canzonari) who approached her earlier. He asks if she is "from the Bureau" and proceeds to seduce her. We next see her, disheveled in a slip, idly examining some military medals and the black bag given to her by the man behind the door in a previous segment, which contains a revolver. In a final dream sequence she appears as a garish whore in a fur coat, fishnets, and bustier, brandishing a martini glass garnished with human teeth. In black & white, with dream sequences in color. Shot with a Panasonic PV-GS300 & PV-GS180 and edited with Final Cut Pro, with no crew and very little assistance (e.g. occasionally asking one of my actors to push the record button when I was in the frame), and a cast composed entirely of friends of mine. Needless to say I had no budget beyond a few props I bought myself. Music by Les Joyaux de la Princesse feat. Regard Extreme. Influences include: David Lynch, Roman Polanski, Franz Kafka, Jean Genet, Werner Herzog, Stanley Kubrick, Ken Russell, Alejandro Jodorowsky, Luis Bunuel, HP Lovecraft, German Expressionism, film noir, my own dreams
Purgatory (part 3)
Part 3 of my 55-minute senior project video, a psychological horror/mystery/art film, I guess you could say. After her visit to the Bureau of Open Affairs proves pointless, the wife (Leia Caldoran) goes home and gets on with her life, cooking a pot of pierogies. She then has a dream in which her military husband ("J.M. Koehler"), or at least an idealized image of him (since that kind of outfit, which combines elements of East German, Soviet, and American uniforms, would be rather impractical for actual combat) crash-lands or is shot down in a snow-covered forest and stumbles around until he dies of exposure. Upon waking, the wife has a rather awkward, vodka-fueled visit from her sister (Marisa Buxbaum), who is her opposite in most every respect; later, she receives a second, puzzling card from the Bureau in her mailbox, informing her that she has "neglected her appointment." In black & white, with dream sequences in color. Shot with a Panasonic PV-GS300 & PV-GS180 and edited with Final Cut Pro, with no crew and very little assistance (e.g. occasionally asking one of my actors to push the record button when I was in the frame), and a cast composed entirely of friends of mine. Needless to say I had no budget beyond a few props I bought myself. Music by Ataraxia and Les Joyaux de la Princesse. Influences include: David Lynch, Roman Polanski, Franz Kafka, Jean Genet, Werner Herzog, Stanley Kubrick, Ken Russell, Alejandro Jodorowsky, Luis Bunuel, HP Lovecraft, German Expressionism, film noir, my own dreams
