J-Men Forever (1979)

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0080940/ The Lightning Bug has a multi-prong scheme to enslave the earth. First, rock and roll, which the JMen counter with Muzac, then marijuana. Finally, the JMen build a bomb to blow up the moon with, but the Bug beats them to it by self destructing the moon by playing his rock and roll too loud. http://www.ulozto.net/xCEvmCcE/j-men-forever-1979-mkv

Bad Acid - It's Worth The Trip (2006)

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0475220/ If you think it's funny to watch a drunkard, think of the fun you'll have watching someone on acid. This movie follows a doomed character who can't seem to go a day without tripping, venturing into one misadventure after another. Yes, taking acid can make a normal routine, like going to work, seem like an odyssey, complete with monsters (toilet sharks), perils (the sidewalk turning into an inferno), and beautiful maidens. Peter Steele from Type O Negative guest stars in this unusual comedy. http://www.ulozto.net/xGFQXMXu/bad-acid-it-s-worth-the-trip-2006-extras-mkv-001 http://www.ulozto.net/xkkRY7Yt/bad-acid-it-s-worth-the-trip-2006-extras-mkv-002 http://www.ulozto.net/xe3LcAcE/bad-acid-it-s-worth-the-trip-2006-extras-mkv-003

Robbing Peter (2004)

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0397613/ Robbing Peter, the debut feature from writer/director Mario F. de la Vega, tells three stories of crime and betrayal across the U.S.-Mexican border which intertwine toward a climactic finish. Unable to find work as a mechanic, Pedro (Louie Olivo Jr.) scores a job from local crime boss Don Epifiano (Victor Martinez) -- or rather, from the eccentric drug lord's pet rabbit, Fluffy. Fluffy orders Pedro to accompany a gringo pilot named Paul (Joe Keyes) on a drug deal into Arizona, but Pedro misses his meeting with Paul and tries to track him down through Paul's girlfriend, Shawna (Robin Simmons), whom he kidnaps. A flashback reveals more about Shawna and Paul, a recently paroled felon, and their history with Epifiano that landed Paul in prison. Add into the mix a hood named Danny (Alejandro Patino), who ropes his straight-laced brother Nelson (Pedro Pana) into a scheme to get a hold of the loot, and by the end of the third section, all involved have come to cross purposes. Robbing Peter was nominated for four 2004 Independent Spirit Awards: Best First Screenplay, Best Supporting Female (Simmons), Best Debut Performance (Olivo), and the John Cassavetes Award for best feature budgeted under 500,000 dollars. ~ Derek Armstrong, Rovi http://www.ulozto.net/xz4Tc8vo/robbing-peter-2004-mkv http://www.ulozto.net/live/xCkT9ouS/robbing-peter-2004-trailer-mkv

Cornman - American Vegetable Hero (2001)(Includes 3 Commentaries?)

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0295206/ This is not a Troma "film", but is very similar, and is actually introduced on the dvd by Troma's Lloyd Kaufman himself. Oh, and this includes THREE commentary tracks!! THREE!! Yep, THREE!! A laughable loser stumbles onto a bucket of toxic waste in a cornfield and gains the ability to communicate with corn. He obtains the sidekicks and spandex necessary to become a superhero and vows to protect the corn from the evil villain Dr. Hoe. The one-armed-hoe-bad-guy enlists the aid of a giant mutant-hybrid-freak and several crappy footsoliders in an attempt to dominate ALL THE CORN IN THE WORLD! Only CORNMAN: AMERICAN VEGATABLE HERO can save the day! http://www.ulozto.net/xpr1sRPK/cornman-american-vegetable-hero-2001-includes-3-commentaries-mkv

Toofy Shorts Volume 1 (2006)

The Festival (2005–2006)

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0470011/ A verité-satire, The Festival is an ensemble comedy, told from the perspective of fictional IFC documentarian, Cookie. Cookie's subject: Rufus Marquez, a quixotic young director embarking on his virgin voyage to the prestigious Mountain United Film Festival (MUFF.) The Film is The Unreasonable Truth of Butterflies. The goal is a distribution deal. And the pressure is on. Rufus - unprepared for the excess of schmoozing activities - maneuvers an assortment of pretentious filmmakers, salivating distributors and smile-for-the-camera festival VIPs. The problem is, no one has seen his film - and the more no one sees it, the hotter the buzz becomes. As her bosses close in, Cookie loses her objectivity and Rufus loses his film - literally - as his masterpiece goes missing. http://www.ulozto.net/xSaLpzK1/the-festival-s01e01-2005-mkv http://www.ulozto.net/xaXzmcP6/the-festival-s01e02-2005-mkv http://www.ulozto.net/xf3ViAo4/the-festival-s01e03-2005-mkv http://www.ulozto.net/xm3bUeny/the-festival-s01e04-2005-mkv http://www.ulozto.net/xkhmwYkh/the-festival-s01e05-2005-mkv http://www.ulozto.net/xPtwBqRH/the-festival-s01e06-2005-mkv

Not for Sale: TV Sheriff and the Trail Buddies (2007)

http://www.cinemad.iblamesociety.com/2007/03/tv-sheriff-and-trailbuddies.html Emerging from the LA underground in the year 2000, a self - proclaimed "video band" called TV SHERIFF & THE TRAILBUDDIES hit the scene with their twisted take on performance art and VJ remixing. They have since taken their unique act to venues worldwide, providing animated commentary on the state of mind control in the USA. THE TRAILBUDDIES focuses on the banality of television, creating rhythmic collages from appropriated clips of the most absurd broadcast moments. And besides their virtuoso sampling, the madcap ensemble creates original (and hilarious!) karaoke-style melodies on mass-media manipulation. NOT 4 $ALE is the culmination of years of shredded/edited video-music compositions and live performances that lampoon as well as pay tribute to the world of TV commercials, game shows, televangelists and network news. http://www.ulozto.net/x4RNQZcE/not-for-sale-tv-sheriff-and-the-trailbuddies-2007-mkv http://www.ulozto.net/xUNuvpAq/not-for-sale-tv-sheriff-and-the-trailbuddies-2007-extras-zip

Matando Cabos (2004)(Spanish with optional English subs)

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0380538/

Oscar Cabos, a multimillionaire tycoon, is being held for ransom -- only his captors have nabbed the wrong man. Now, to get their money, they must find the real Cabos -- which could get tricky since he's been counter-kidnapped by his future son-in-law and impersonated by his childhood friend (now his janitor), Nacho. To make matters worse, the two desperate friends who started this mess must rely on the less-than-delicate street savvy of former wrestler "Mascarita" and the pint-sized Tony "The Cannibal" to sort it all out. http://www.ulozto.net/xTaKKweW/matando-cabos-2004-spanish-with-optional-english-subs-mkv

Extreme Animation - Films by Phil Mulloy (2009)

One of animation s most prurient, dark and mischievous masters, multi-award-winning animator Phil Mulloy stands as an antidote to all that is kitsch and sentimental. Using simple brush pens and ink, Mulloy's works are witty and acerbic fables, loaded with graphic images of sex and violence that are both perceptive comments on human nature and challenges to contemporary values. KimStim and Kino are proud to release this compilation of 24 films of the great British animator s work. These brilliantly subversive satirical cartoons are definitely not for the squeamish or the easily offended.

Cyxork 7 (2006)

Mother Nature's fury clashes with Hollywood has-been determination as a group of down and out filmmakers attempt to resurrect a dying sci-fi franchise by keeping their production afloat long enough to shoot their big climax with the "Big One" as the backdrop. In just seventy-two hours, Los Angeles will finally get the earthquake that folks have been anticipating for decades. The Generic News Network is capitalizing on public panic in typically tacky fashion, and the cast of the hopelessly irrelevant Cyxork sci-fi film franchise is ready to risk their lives for some free special effects. But while square-jawed star Rex Anderson (Ray Wise) just wants to keep his film career afloat and earn enough money so that he and his wife can move out of the public appearance bus they call a home, director Angela LaSalle (Sonya Smith) is seeking to transform schlock cinema into celluloid art. When Rex goes over Angela's head in an attempt to get her fired, the plan backfires and they both end up out of work. The production effectively shut down, Rex and Angela decide that their only hope is to put aside their differences, pretend they are still in production, and work under the radar to finish the film. But who would be foolish enough to try and shoot a film during what promises to be the biggest earthquake in recorded history? As the crew races to get the film finished before the studio finds out, the entire state of California braces for the big rumble and hopes for the best. http://www.ulozto.net/x5mEn67N/cyxork-7-2006-avi
