Josh Slates' Odyssey of Oddities

Editorial Review:
Description
The short films of Josh Slates are sent hurtling into the 21st century with the help of the DVD format. Remastered from the original telecine transfers and refitted with Dolby Digital sound, these efforts now possess an audibility and richness never experienced in any previous presentation.
"Princess Chic" - Spring is in bloom ... as is Judy Ashdon, in her film debut as the rope-skipping thorn in the side of her little sister.
"Galactic Flamestress vs. Haunted Bannister" - Judy Ashdon reveals her secret superheroine alter ego in a fever-pitched battle with poltergeists who have come to haunt her staircase.
"Who's Minding the Wires?" - The perils of telecommunicative hooliganery are illustrated in this cautionary public service effort.
"The Golden Age of Hollywood" - Circe Hickford, the greatest star of the silent film era, retreats from celebrity and is faced to confront her solitude in a mansion filled with zombies.
"Rose Petals and Rigamarole" - Skirts, surgery and geysers of blood abound in this wrestling-horror-romance about an unusual predicament that envelops two young runaways.
"Blockbuster" - Take a raunchy tour of the insanity of vanity with Tangerine Beausoleil, 'the most gorgeoustest girl in all of North America.' Her entry into the Miss Teen Sass USA pageant brings hope to her irate mother and further consternation to her alcoholic, algebra-challenged sister.
"Here and There" - Five parallel lives zig-zag through a cross-country hedge maze of homesickness and unfulfilled ambitions.
"Mr. Logan" - A glimpse into the life's work of Mr. Logan, a playground supervisor at Ridgeway Elementary in Columbia, Missouri.
"A Fool's Weapon" - As a documentary filmmaker is out on the prowl for new subject matter, he learns that life can be painful and unfair.
"Cheesy Tuna Casserole" - Kelly Coleman and Tom Duncan star as a couple whose repressed frustrations swell to a burst.
