Jim and Heinz: The First Five DVD

In a world containing a bezerk robot suffering from the wrong size of
memory chip, a demon mask that won't come off, the perils of playing
super monkey ball on a building site, 27 identical people chopped up
in a bath and rondos that go on forever, two friends attempt to deal
with the real issues in their lives: waiting for a website to load and
why Heinz has never met his girlfriend.
This DVD contains the first five 'Jim and Heinz' films. The stories are
told using hundreds of still pictures which when coupled with the
odd little universe in which Jim and Heinz live, herald a new
development in film, comedy and the progress of the Human race
as a whole. Some recreational swearing is portrayed.

Films:


The Demon Mask
Heinz shows Jim his latest acquisition from the Internet: a mask from the horror film 'Demonhunter'. Jim tries the mask on and all hell breaks loose.


The Rondo Continuum
Jim and Heinz enjoy a stroll through the gardens of Vienna's beautiful 'Schloss Belvedere'. They soon learn what a Rondo is and why it's better to go one way round it rather than another.


Zantrox
Heinz has just finished building a robot. All it needs is a 32 megabyte flashcard chip. Enter Jim with the chip. Exit peace and order.


The Real World

Jim has had enough of Heinz continually beating him at video games, so he arranges a little surprise which he hopes will level out the playing field.


Heinz' Halloween Horror
Heinz finally kills Jim. Is this the end of the line for the two friends, or will the fabric of space-time allow things to be all right again?

PLUS loads of special features (see above)

NEW!!!! Jim and Heinz: The Next Five DVD

Jim and Heinz- the next five

 

Mick Roads: Ilford cab driver DVD

Mick Roads is the worst minicab driver in Ilford, an outpost of northeast London. These six films detail some of the adventures he has had in (and out of) his cab.

Films:

'Mick is sick'
In this adventure, Mick has unwisely combined 'Breakfast in a tin' with a week-old pot noodle. The results are all too apparent for Mick's unfortunate city gent passenger. Starring Paul Elliott as Mick Roads and Napoleon Ryan as the passenger.

'Petrol'
The very first Mick film from Blunt. Mick runs out of petrol, but not before he has regaled his unlucky passenger with his views on marriage, Brixton and 'eating out'

'Mick's Hospital job'
Mick picks up a distraught woman at a hospital and tries to cheer her up. Results: inconclusive.

'Mick Roads Demon Hunter'
A Pilot for a TV show that Mick reckons would be like Buffy but with more swearing, sex and violence. No sex in the pilot, unfortunately, because he couldn't find a woman willing to cooperate.

'Justice'
Mick describes to an increasingly disgusted passenger his scheme for improving Britain's criminal justice system.

'Millionaire'
Mick describes to an increasingly disgusted passenger his scheme for improving 'Who wants to be a millionaire'

(extras on this disk include deleted scenes, outtakes, audio commentaries, 'Mick's guide to Ilford' and 'The Devil's Chase' - a spooky Hammer-like film loosely based on 'The Devil Rides out'. Very loosely.)

We've finally got round to authoring and cramming a DVD with all of our newest sketches and films

Including:
Films:

Jim and Heinz: The Rondo Continuum
Jim and Heinz enjoy a stroll through the gardens of Vienna's beautiful 'Schloss Belvedere'. They soon learn what a Rondo is and why it's better to go one way round it rather than another.

A Rumble in the woods 3D
The Ilford Ninja has a set-to in the woods with his arch nemesis Lau Tzu. Luckily many of their Kung Fu skills involve sticking stuff into the camera.

'Mick is Sick'
In this adventure, Mick has unwisely combined 'Breakfast in a tin' with a week-old pot noodle. The results are all too apparent for Mick's unfortunate city gent passenger. Starring Paul Elliott as Mick Roads and Napoleon Ryan as the passenger.

The Exchange
An experimental film utilising the 'Pulfrich effect' of 3D depth perception via side-scrolling camera and a dark filter held up to one eye. It attempts to be funny as well.

Charles Moon and the Epping Forest Yeti
Join paranormal investigator Charles Moon as he hunts the elusive and dangerous Yeti of Epping Forest.

The adventures of Elvis in the 15th Dimension
Elvis gets sucked through a wormhole during a gig and has to rescue some astronauts on a far away planet.

Gardens Beautiful
Marvel at the Ilford Ninja's application of Ninjitsu to the basics of gardening. But are his techniques as effective as he claims?

Golf Thewlis: Art on the move
Art can be fun, claims borderline psychotic Golf Thewlis. In this film he takes to the streets and proves his point. Well, tries to.

Zero Budget Filmmaking tips
A selection of the lessons we have learned (some immoral, some illegal) while out there with a camera and not much money.

Lau Tzu: Shaolin egg walking
Shaolin master Lau Tzu demonstrates some of his kung fu powers in the local park, climaxing with a fearless display of egg walking.

(extras on this disk include 'how to do 3D' and 'DIY squibs', audio commentaries and loads more)

A bit older!!!!! The Blunt Compilation VHS

 

For those of you who haven't taken the plunge yet and are still waiting for the time when DVD players cost about 10p each, we offer you the Blunt Compilation VHS. Over an hour's worth of our earlier sketches and films- many of which are unavailable on the DVD

Contents

We kick off with a selection of our favourite pieces: ‘The Planets’ is as dark a story about a correctly proportioned model of the solar system as will ever be made, ‘Football Memories’ continues in a lighter mood with one man’s fond memories in his local park, ‘Chef on the Go’ introduces us to Oscar Wellington who will be cooking for people in their own kitchens and last of all the new and improved Digital Watch sketch - in which a dying solider‘s final wish is revealed while an evil presence approaches from parts unknown.

The Blunt guide to Zero Budget Filmmaking

Drawing on their years in the underground film club and guerilla filmmaking scene, Slotover and Elliott have gleaned many startling ways to spice up their films while keeping the costs down to an average of zero pounds. These tips were given a regular slot on the BBC Scotland produced ‘Bob’s DIY Filmmaking Club’

Scum of the Earth

A situation comedy without the situation and the comedy coming from a zen-like direction. Why these peoples lives should reduce the viewer to uncomprehending hysterics is beyond anyone, but it happens so we don’t question it. These people are scum. They deserve to eat burned toast and dribble urine on their bathroom floors.

Machine 74

The wonderful world of Misc. comedy sketches is here! Golf Thewlis the unstable Australian artist, Captain V the failed spaceship commander, how to go clubbing 24 hours a day, escape from Dr Mandrax's army of robots, the first ever zombie sitcom, the Ilford Ninja's guide to gardening, something called 'The Alan and Moe show’ which we made using stuffed toys... and many more results of one video camera, too much time and not much money.
