Rubber Johnny
>> 'Johnny is a hyperactive, shape-shifting mutant child, kept locked away in a basement. With only his feverish imagination and his terrified dog for company, he finds ways to amuse himself in the dark.'
The new multi-minute abstract film by Chris Cunningham. He's the guy who made the disturbing Aphex Twin video Come to Daddy, Windowlicker, etc & that Bjork cyborg one that sort of ripped off/made homage to Kubrick. It is disturbing, even though the full thing isn't here yet! So don't click if you are easily freaked out. In any event, though, the full movie hasn't been released yet, try as I might to find a torrent. Scoop! Nothing is real. Only digital animation. There is no real weird kid. Mumbling head. Eee, like putty. Bonus points if you can tell what the fuck this is. You're not going to get bonus points. Eee!

More anus? Please.

Cunningham rocks. And the stuff he's made with Aphex is just the kind of ooze lurking in the darkest recesses of the human mind, ready to spring out when we're dozing off, in the throes of sleep... *cough* Now, don't look at me like that. Ah, if only that Cunningham-directed Neuromancer movie had come to be...

When I was growing up back in Ireland rubber johnny was a euphamism for a prophylatic

Finally, new Cunningham work! What's this guy been doing these last few years? Spinning in development hell with the Neuromancer project? How many minutes is this film anyway? I hope somewhere around 30.
