Cremaster 2 (1999)

Cremaster 2 (1999)
- Matthew Barney -

The story of Gary Gilmore inspires much of the film while the visuals/set pieces are often curiously perplexing as well as lavish, evocative at times of David Lynch or Alejandro Jodorowsky, and worthy of viewing on the big screen. Slayer drummer Dave Lombardo even makes an appearance. Currently this is my favorite of the cycle.

One of the best descriptions I've read about this film comes from Latheman-9 on their IMDb review. They sum up the review with - "Very artsy and a bit overwrought, Cremaster 2 is the kind of work one expects from Barney.Rating: 6/10."

Freaks and Geeks - 1999 - pilot episode

The 1999 series Freaks and Geeks was a one of a kind television series. Fairly realistically and thoroughly engaging, the program depicted life in the early 1980s at McKinley High School. Created by Paul Feig (who also directed the 2000 Discos and Dragons episode and has gone on to direct episodes of Arrested Development, The Office, Nurse Jackie, and others) the show was an early showcase for many young actors who went on to greater acclaim. Here's the pilot episode.
