Saint Bernard

As we have seen in Mad God or Killer Klowns from Outer Space, the most bizarre, original, unsettling and purely phantasmagoric visions are haunting the minds of special effects creators. Gabe Bartalos has worked on films by Frank Henenlotter, the Leprechaun series and Matthew Barney’s The Cremaster Cycle. In his personal directorial project he takes us on a wild surreal ride into the subconscious of a mad music conductor, filled with large amounts of psychological issues, baggage and the just plain weird. Driven by dream logic, the result plays like a feature length ambient music video consisting of the most grotesque visions by Alejandro Jodorowsky, Shinya Tsukamoto, Terry Gilliam, Michel Gondry or Chris Cunningham. Prepare your eyes and brain, if you can! (The Shockproof Film Festival)
