“Obscene, energetic, and grotesque… DER ELVIS is less a barbaric yawp than a 20-minute retch, building in ferocity until the final unctuous voice-over. “Never has The King’s insouciant sex appeal seemed so creepy, so nose-in-the-trough piggish as it does in the 22-minute DER ELVIS.” Kickstarter Special (Filmmaker) 1x Cinema Grade Pro license for Premiere Pro on Windows WITH bonus film add-ons AND Color Grading Academy color training. “One of the most impressive and precocious student films ever made.” One of the “top 50 movies of the 1980’s” – The Village Voice Moritsugu’s fast and fluid editing is a central strength of all his work.” “A 23-minute jolt of highly controlled chaos… it employs screeching feedback as an aural motif, handmade interventions on the film stock (scratching, drawing, writing), found footage and staged scenes… Mr. Der Elvis is literally and metaphorically a postmodern spew of theoretical aesthetics set to the pulsing soundtrack of utterly warped bricolage. Music: Eugene Chadbourne, Shockabilly, feedtime, SteppenpukeĪ punked-out, radical deconstruction of the mythology of Elvis Presley colliding fact and fiction in a miasma of feedback, noise, and stoopid Presley impersonators. Written, directed & produced by: Jon Moritsugu Starring: Hanna Davidson, Sam Grisdale, Wendy Edwards, Nancy Versaci Honolulu Underground Film Festival, WINNER “POPULAR CHOICE” AWARD “A shiny, dusted fairy tale of girl hoods on an epic scum ride.” – Your Flesh “The bikers are babes, the soundtrack is deafening.” – City Paper (DC) “The film’s use of crude animation and genial low-grade yucks is well worth seeing. This features two gal bikers, a kilo of pork sausage, spraypaint huffing, nice rough animation, and a semiotic grasp of pop-cult building blocks that seems archetypically Providential. An excellent piss-take of the famous road film.
