Film Facts


Twenty-one minutes long, SATISFACTION was shot in one day.

VICTIM was shot in a single night. On the date of the shoot, the actor originally cast to play the leading part of Adrienne dropped out of the project due to illness. With only hours before filming was to begin, director Jason Christ reorganized his cast to accommodate the sudden vacancy. Actor Molly Reid, who was originally set to play the supporting role of Mary, was promoted to the leading role of Adrienne.

Jason Christ's music film CURVEBALL: PILE OF JUNK has won numerous film and broadcasting awards, including a Cine Eagle Award, a Telly Award, and an Emmy.

CURVEBALL: PILE OF JUNK, director Jason Christ's first attempt at making a music video, was shot over the course of four days on both 16mm and Super8mm film at various St. Louis locations (usually without permission) on a budget of around $2,000. Jason Christ is also the director of the short films VISION, VICTIM, and BLURRED. He is the editor on numerous other film shorts. Also an actor, Jason Christ plays the part of Matt in the Wicked Pixel Cinema production of ICE FROM THE SUN. CURVEBALL: PILE OF JUNK stars Eric Stanze in the leading role. Eric Stanze is the director of several independent genre releases, including ICE FROM THE SUN, SCRAPBOOK, and SAVAGE HARVEST. The production designer of CURVEBALL: PILE OF JUNK is Tommy Biondo, who has art department credits in the features ICE FROM THE SUN, SCRAPBOOK, and THE BIG BRASS RING.

The initial release of THE SEVERED HEAD NETWORK VOLUME 2 (VHS) was a limited edition compilation. Only 150 copies of this volume were created for sale to the public. This limited VHS compilation represents the only official release of the shorts LAM (not included on the DVD due to length), A BAD DAY IN THE LIFE (not included on the DVD due to length), and GALACTIC SQUAD (excluded from the DVD due to copyright issues).
