Short film
Der Elvis
1987 · 23 min
A chaotic, noisy collage that feels like flipping channels through punk zines and bad impersonators, more abrasive experiment than story.

- Overview
- A punked-out, radical deconstruction of the mythology of Elvis Presley colliding fact and fiction in a miasma of feedback, noise, and stoopid Presley impersonators. Der Elvis is literally and metaphorically a postmodern spew of theoretical aesthetics set to the pulsing soundtrack of utterly warped bricolage.
