Pantera’s three VHS videos in one place. A lot of bud, booze, the Hulk, Moscow, paper mache pot, cuts and bruises, and small appliances smashed to bits.
Dimebag is seen ripping it up circa ’84 and ’85, right up until his Damageplan days. There’s lots of fireworks, most notably used to wake various poor loafers.
A nice, dripping-screwdriver-to-the-forehead stabbing, a penetrating tongue encounter, and a cool vulture demon who sneaks mouthfuls of people’s entrails.
Refused Are Fucking Dead is a documentary in the vein of Meeting People is Easy, in that it’s not a “band DVD” but rather an outsider’s telling of the story.
The Mask as a karate movie, complete with faces that squash inwards and necks that twist like barber poles. Looney Tunes taken to its most chop-sockey extreme.
