Tribute to Wesley Willis



Wesley Willis was a obese, schizophrenic black man from Chicago (some says homeless but apparently not, look in the comments section at the end of the page). 
He had a big black bruise on his forehead, because he used to headbutt people to say hello.

He was also, and mostly, a genius musician and painter.


Check out some of his music below and you can check his paintings here.

Short doc:


"Alanis Morisette" song by Wesley Willis:



One of his hits: "Rock'n'rolls McDonalds":



Another masterpiece: "Cut the Mullet"



"I Wupped Batman's ass"

Dolemite II: The Human Tornado - Cliff Roquemore - USA - (1976)




Plot by Imdb:" Dolemite comes to the rescue of Queen Bee, whose primarily black Nightclub is threatened by White Mafia types."

A part of the Dolemite movie series (that, of course, have very little in common apart from the main character), "The Human Tornado" is a never seen before investigation into the absurd. A moment in cinema history that stands the test of time and will be referred as, in the future, one of the worst movie of all time, as well as one of the funnier. If you have my kind of humor. I must add right now that Rudy Ray Moore is one of my heroes (with Wesley Willis, amongst others. More on Wesley later on). Every movie he made during the seventies is a Blaxploitation gem, more hysterical and fucked up than the previous one. To begin with, Rudy Ray Moore is everything that is interesting in those movies, the rest is meaningless. 
HE is the MAN. 
And what a man: overweight, dressed as a pimp with clothes out of a Disneyland garage sale, beating the shit out of his adversaries with his invented-overacted-false-kung-fu (the fighting sequences are played in fast forward in general), Rudy Ray Moore is mainly a singer / entertainer and above everything else a womanizer. I'm sure the  ladies reading this will be turned on, just by looking at the pictures of Rudy.  Yes, Rudy's effect on women is amazing and he never misses a chance to score...The plot doesn't matter, the cheapness f it all doesn't matter, only Rudy Ray Moore matters. He makes this movie a marvelous experience, as you will just roll on the floor laughing more than once...
HILARIOUS & UNMISSABLE !
Check out his others movies that are equally insane: Dolemite (the first), Petey Weatstraw and Disco Godfather (a hell of a guilty pleasure).

Bajrang Bali - Chandrakant - India - (1976)




Plot by Imdb:" Bhagwan Shri Bajrangbali has had super-natural powers at a very young age which includes swallowing the sun, lifting mountains, just to name a few. Bajrangbali has always regarded the skies and universe as his playground and could leap and fly around at will. Non could be super-natural as Bajrangbali, he could make himself small and large, if needed, burn down a whole colony all at once. Bajrangbali makes it his duty to serve Bhagwan Shri Ram all days in his life. He will make this comes to light when Ram's wife, Devi Maa Sita, has been kidnapped by Shivbakht Ravan, and is being held captive in far off Lanka. He displays this as he locates Sitaji, kills Akshaye, Ravan's son, mocks Ravan, and even sets Lanka afire, before returning back to Ramji, and tells him that he has 30 days to get Sita back before Ravan forcibly marries her. Watch as events unfold what Bajrangbali will do to make Ram locates his wife, Sita, how he will save Ram's brother, Laxman from dieing and a good result at the end"

What an amazing movie ! A 3 hour treat for the lovers of Indian mythology, filled with fantasy and magic, as we watch Hanuman battling against the villains for the honor of his lord RAM. Quite a mesmerizing spectacle, Bajrang Bali really is a masterpiece of a kind: the art direction is impressive, sets are beautiful, the super old-school fx are great and flashy, the music is catchy (some songs are excellent),  the fights are funny, the actors are good overall and one dance act just left me with a stupid smile on my face (I guess I am a sucker for Indian extravagant choreography by sexy dancers). How can we ask more from a 1976 Bollywood movie about mythical events ? Guess Bajrang Bali would need to be rediscovered because it's really great fun.
Hail, hail Bajrang Bali !!!

Koenji hyakkei - music



Imagine a mix between Magma, Gong, Franck Zappa and Afro Ra, high on super skunk. 
It's "Koenji hyakkei", they are making Zeuhl music and I love it. 
Of course, it comes from...Japan. Where else ?

It's also highly effective against disturbing neighbors. They usually come back and beg you to stop it after only one hour. Magic !

The Bikini Bandits Experience - Steve Grasse - USA - (2002)



http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0361394/

Plot by Imdb:"The Bandits are killed, and, upon entering the underworld, are given an ultimatum from Satan: Go to Jerusalem and desecrate the Virgin Mary or be forced to watch Corey Feldman dance for all eternity. The Pope shows up to try and stop them."

Bad taste lovers, here is your treat ! Let's just glance at the casting for a second: Maynard James Keenan as Satan, Dee Dee Ramone as the The Pope, Jello Biafra as an Evil Porn Director, Corey Feldman as the Angel Gabriel / Himself, Gary the Retard and.....Hank The Angry Drunken Dwarf !!!! 
And I didn't even mentioned the 5 super hot bitches that stars this insane internet-born cross-media insanity because I just might loose my temper. This movie is not a movie per se, it's just an hysterical collage of scenes, all more fucked up than the previous and without any logic whatsoever. 
But hey, you're been warned: the cover says it all. 
Nice way to spend an evening while surfing the web or having friends around, this MTV-like "jackasserie" is undoubtedly forgettable but clearly enjoyable when you haven't completely lost your sense of humor...and you're love for chicks with guns !
