PIECES 1982 UNCUT MOVIE

Pieces often resembles a parallel dimension Scooby Doo episode вЂ“ only in this mind-bending transmission from HellвЂ™s Cartoon Network, thereвЂ™s no dog, Velma smokes weed whilst gabbing about fucking on a waterbed, and Shaggy is a closeted college professor, always giving someone the side-eye. Pieces вЂ“ itвЂ™s exactly what you think it is вЂ“ a mean-spirited, poorly dubbed Spanish knock-off of Italian giallo. However, this lack of self-awareness is what marks Pieces as an authentically bizarre artifact: oblivious sincerity that results in sheer filmic lunacy.

ThatвЂ™s right вЂ“ a movie in which a coed skateboards through a mirror being hauled by two moving men (silent comedy style) during the scene that establishes its campus setting was originally envisioned as вЂњhigh browвЂќ by the man who made it. ItвЂ™s Airplane! with chainsaws yet the picture was never meant to be a parody.ДЄ vaguely smug, straight-faced sensibility is injected via Juan Piquer SimГіn, as the Mystery on Monster Island director allegedly intended to make an art film out DвЂ™Amato and RandallвЂ™s script. An utter masterwork of illogic, smut producer Dick Randall ( Slaughter High, DonвЂ™t Open Till Christmas) and notorious schlockmeister Joe DвЂ™Amato ( Beyond the Darkness) are incorporating a kitchen sink, almost ZAZ-like sensibility when it comes to the preposterous manner in which their somewhat simple and clichГ©d story unfolds. In the annals of trash cinemaвЂ™s Hall of Fame, few films come close to matching the sheer nonsense-per-scene factor that Pieces packs into less than ninety minutes.

The seventeenth entry into this disreputable canon is the skeevy, utterly bonkers slasher farce, PiecesвЂ¦ Ziemba and Laird Jimenez (often pulling from the extensive AGFA archives) are truly doing SatanвЂ™s bidding by bringing ATX weekly doses of delightful trash art. This column is a concentrated effort to keep that spirit of strangeness alive, as programmers Joe A. Though the company has obviously grown into an internationally recognized chain of first run movie palaces, the Drafthouse Ritz in Austin, Texas remains committed to showcasing genre repertory programming, namely via its Terror Tuesday and Weird Wednesday showcases. Beyond being situated in a town that has long aspired to remain eccentric in the face of all normality, itвЂ™s easy to forget that the original Alamo started as something of a private screening club, running prints of the odd and obscure into all hours of the night. The Alamo Drafthouse is a brand built on weird.
