They Eat Scum

A collection of the weird and wonderful works of indie film maker Nick Zedd.

Zarathustra spends his days in his NY apartment, talking to and confiding in a pin-up on his wall, and on this occasion his delusional dialog with the porn idol results in his declaration that he must ‘descend’, as if being reluctantly chosen for some important or divine mission.

An agit-prop edutainment ho down featuring a bevy of warrior lapdancers struggling to overthrow corporate state capitalism and rancid criminal globalisation through amateur wrestling, gun juggling and anarchist debate.

A look at a conspiracy involving the United States president.

The legendary underground filmmaker Nick Zedd returns with this fantastic account of the titular death of performance artist and costume designer Muffinhead.

The paintings of Nick Zedd come to life, and they have some disturbing things to say in this animated short.

Reverend Jen tries on different pairs of panties.

A series of close-ups of real urban 'types' in which the camera is returned to its Edison-era status as a simple recording device.

A bizarre adventure in which a young boy is chased by a masked phantom holding a severed arm in a graveyard. A man with one arm appears and is handed the severed arm by the phantom. Then a giant woman appears enveloping the boy. An unsettling and delirious apocalyptic atmosphere pervades the movie, designed as a trailer for a "film of the future."

Nick Zedd's controversial and disturbing WHOREGASM is a twelve-minute barrage of sexual loops interspersed with bits of found footage, dizzying opticals, and outtakes of Zedd's own POLICE STATE. The sex scenes, most which appear to be taken from old 8mm stag reels, are edited in such a way that makes the act of sex seem impersonal, mechanical, and altogether vile.
