The Public Domain [2009] XviD

Made this little flick as a side project to my writing. It is comprised almost entirely of media in the public domain, featuring many of the gialli classics by Dario Argento, which have inexplicably drifted into free waters. Well, praise Jesus because most the other films are crap, but I did the best I could with the available material. I attended a 35mm screening of Night of the Hunter which they kicked off with a Bugs Bunny cartoon, so that's why it kicks things off; apparently no matter what the content they used to begin films with a cartoon. Central Idea: The initial plot concerns a series of murders by the "Cul-de-sac Killer," but it is apparent that he is just one of the many at work in the public domain. The plot disintegrates almost as soon as it began once the film itself has a Crisis. The rest is Suppression, then Release. It could always use a little tinkering, but I've got to focus on my other darlings so if there are enough people interested, I can seed the whole project folder with the master files and you can tweak it as you see fit. All you would need is Photoshop and Vegas; feel free to do whatever you want, I only ask that you focus on material in the public domain. Hope you enjoy. The mpeg2 version I have is better quality but three times the size and my upload capabilities suck; I'm pretty sure Verizon lowered their standard DSL speed to make FiOS, which isn't available in my area, more lucrative. Shame on them. So be patient at first, until others grab it-- and hopefully they won't delete it right away. This torrent is aimed at cinemageddon fellows and the freakyflicks faithful right here at TPB. ***CAUTION*** Very graphic stuff featuring flashes of crime-scene photographs, so not for the squeamish. --- Video Information --- Video Codec Type(e.g. "DIV3"): XVID Video Codec Name(e.g. "DivX 3, Low-Motion"): XviD 1.1.0 Beta 2 Video Codec Status(e.g. "Codec Is Installed"): Codec(s) are Installed Duration (hh:mm:ss): 1:12:01 Frame Count: 129484 Frame Width (pixels): 720 Frame Height (pixels): 480 Storage Aspect Ratio("SAR")" 1.500 Pixel Aspect Ratio ("PAR"): 1.000 Display Aspect Ratio ("DAR"): 1.500 Fields Per Second: Frames Per Second: 29.970 Pics Per Second: 29.970 Video Bitrate (kbps): 1042 MPEG-4 ("MPEG-4" or ""): MPEG-4 B-VOP ("B-VOP" or ""): B-VOP --- Audio Information --- MPEG Stream ID (e.g. "0xbd"): MPEG VOB file Substream(e.g. "0x80"): Audio Codec (e.g. "AC3"): PCM Audio Audio Codec Status (e.g. "Codec Is Installed"): No Codec Required Audio Sample Rate (Hz): 48000 Audio Bitrate(kbps): 1536 Audio Bitrate Type ("CBR" or "VBR"): Audio Channel Count (e.g. "2" for stereo): 2

Placement93 (2009-05-10)

I'm really looking forward to this, I think the idea is phenomenal. It's great to hear an artist just throw it out there and say "Take it, fuck with it." Every industrial or noise project I've ever done was done so with just that attitude.
93.
