THE BACKYARD

|
![]() Year Released: 2002 MPAA Rating: Unrated Running Time: 80 minutes |
IN LIMITED RELEASE! This is an x-treme documentary, as riveting as a road accident and a lot more bloody. Introduced by genuine WWF superstar Rob Van Dam, who is more than a little hesitant to actually endorse what goes on, the footage of the matches themselves will shock and disgust even hardened cult-movie fans…

ABOVE THE DUST LEVEL
|
![]() Year Released: 2000 MPAA Rating: Unrated Running Time: 9 minutes |
FLORIDA FILM FEST REVIEW! This short has won a place in my heart because it sums up the 90s so well – it’s punk, it’s MTV editing, it’s held together by a plot as flimsy as its underpants, it’s silly, it’s sexy! It might as well be called Steal Lola Steal…
