If there is any one piece of GWAR media to own, this is it. Simply the most surreal, hilarious, and sick movie that I have ever seen. Filled with awesome GWAR songs from the "America Must be Destroyed" album. I first bought this on VHS back in 1991 and watched it so much that I wore out the tape. Finally, with the DVD version, it can be watched in its full glory! Long live GWAR!
This makes a refreshing change from the norm. in music dvds. More a piece of performance art than a rock show. Not for the squeemish, or overley self-righteous types (or most of your family for that matter). Take it for what it is, (vile, disgusting, and tasteless) and it is a truly inspiring, creative show. They write all of their own stuff, unlike most mindless, mushy, money-making garbage in the charts these days. These creatures take risks and truly suffer for their art...now it's your turn... You have been warned!
I have owned this beauty for a while and recently read it was nominated for a Grammy as best LP music video in 1990. Although the video is short and the extras few, the DVD is a great buy. Grambo captured the "Cuttlefish of Cthulu" and GWAR wants it back. They fight the clergy, the goverment, and health care communities to get the Cuttlefish back. Watch as Sleazy P and GWAR unleash their horror on capitalistic society. Hopefully we can except more DVD releases from these masters of live performances. I have only seen them once a few years back (due to the long drive I must make) but hopefully Dave Brookie and the boys (and girl) will come to kill us soon.
Kneel before the throne of Gwar. No one, not even KISS can put on a stage show like GWAR. Over the top, loud, and downright bloody rude.
A long time of go I did not care for Gwar. I never gave their music a chance and was automatically turned off by their image. One night, a friend of mine popped in Phallus and Wonderland. It was the funniest, sickest, most enjoyable movie I had seen in years. Eversince then I have been a rabid Gwar fan.
