The EXPLOSIVE ADRENALINE Trailer

At Jason's site! Warning: it takes forever and it's not very big. I'll try to get a download on this site that's a larger resolution as soon as I can.

Classified as a "mock action movie trailer that mocks action movies," ExA is our most popular and probably our best work.
STARS: Dennis Marston, Aimee Colley, Phillip Weddle, Shawn Unroe, and Garth Simmons
DIRECTED BY: Garth Simmons & Dennis Marston
SUMMARY: Taking the repeated dialogue cliches and cheese that action movies (and their trailors) have made famous, we created a trailor that was only cliches and cheese, and play on that. Funny stuff...

The picture to the right is part of the box art I made for several copies of the film. It gives a pretty good idea of what the trailor is like, using some of the same dialogue spoken in the trailor by 'the narrator' (voiced by Dennis).

For those of you that haven't seen it (or don't want to download it) here are some interesting bits from and about the short film:
Dennis' performance as 'the Mayor' mocks Armageddon with an "...it's the size of Texas." line.

The opening dialogue piece is making fun of almost every trailor I've ever seen, "In a world of (evil, corruption, etc.)..." or, "In a town where (nothing is what it seems, the truth is hard to find, etc.)..." and my favorite, "In a small town where (insert any number of things to describe how creepy people in this small town might be)..." These kinds of lines open almost all the cheesy trailors, so we couldn't resist using all of them in the first sentnce opening our trailor.

We also came up with all sorts of mock quotes from critics to include in the trailor, because it seems that's the only way a lot of movies can sell themselves, (it doesn't matter if it looks good from the trailor, as long as some critic somewhere said it was "Dazzling entertainment!" So we included many of them, and the box art does, too. The best one though has to be "You pay Matinee prices for a whole seat, but you only need the edge!" (Some producer somewhere is gonna read that and actually want to use it... kind of sad, really).

This one was fun to do. It started out as outtakes from when we were shooting ExA. For example, when Dennis would mess up his dialogue, or while we were setting up the camera, he would just start blurting out random stuff in a radio-voice. So began our most ambitious, and my personal favorite, thing we ever done.

SUMMARY: Similar to This is Spinal Tap and Waiting For Guffman, we created a fictional documentary that looks as though it praises the subject, but ends up making fun because the subject isn't anyone important or interesting enough to have an actual documentary made about them... (a mock-umentary).

And so we follow Don Hoffman, who is the only person who works at KBBY (12.47) RADIO out of Middleofnowhere, AZ. Over the course of the show, we enter this insane person's mind in documentary fashion, and watch him in action with clips of "A.M. Talk" where he encourages people to call in and talk with him as they go to work (but no one ever does), and "Graveyard Shift" the late night hard rock show, with bands no one's ever heard of.

Very few people ever saw this, because it was made in between our other projects, but it's really funny and Dennis gets to show off his many voices. It was basically a 15 minute improv that we happened to tape.

Includes the opening song (performed by "Don Hoffman" which is hilarious because not only do the lyrics majke no sense, but it's played on an untuned guitar that was missing some strings) and has a tear-jerker ending where we remininsce about the time we shared with this strange individual.

Kung-Fu Mintos

Details coming soon. By the way, because we do not have permission from a certain candy company, names will be changed (or misspelled) and this will not be available for download, sorry.

Episode II: The Phantom Mintos

Details coming soon. We also do not have the rights to ALOT of stuff concerning this one, but I will describe the hell out of it because it's really funny.

MORE TO COME!

In case you haven't already noticed, this stuff isn't really all that great. But there's somehing funny about devoting an entire page to praising it as if it were. For more on what I mean, listen to the commentary by Kevin Smith (et al) on the Criterion Collection Mallrats DVD. He speaks of how amusing it is to give artistic recognition to a stupid film that was just fun, not necessarily a great monumental film, but just fun.
