The Transmigration of Donovan Lynch (vostfr-2009)
Entièrement composée dimages en provenance de Youtube - images volées prises au téléphone portable, archives de télévision, conférences, témoignages de fans, flash de news - "La Transmigration de Donovan Lynch" se regarde comme un polar de science fiction, une enquête à travers les fragments du réseau. Gourou en hélicoptère qui survole les foules, dérapage au théâtre Urania, Californie mystique, Maharishi Chanel et David Lynch Foundation Panoptique éclaté et dérive transcendentale.

Paranormal Activity Lula's version
My daughter Lula screamed this week-end when she saw my US version of "Paranormal Activity", the good film by Oren Peli. "The end is not the same, than the theater version in France !". In Paris's theater the french version ends with a last shot of the heroïn, watching the audience.
I just checked on IMD this morning and I discovered there is TWO versions of "Paranormal Activity" (86 and 99 mns length). I don't know why there is two versions ? Nobody in the press or TV talk about that. Even in Peli's interview.s If you have some news about that...

Cinerotica
Acteur pendant près de six ans aux cotés de Jean-Pierre Mocky, mais aussi cinéphile et auteur (plutôt spécialisé dans la culture marginale, la série B, le cinéma bis) chroniqueur à Mauvais Genres sur France Culture, rédacteur de Mad Movies, réalisateur de documentaires sur les nains au cinéma ou la série B allemande (Exotisme, coups de poing et porte-jarretelles), Christophe Bier est, pour synthétiser, un touche-à-tout.
C’est surement cet éclectisme qui pousse Christophe Bier vers cet incroyable pari: raconter tous les mois l’histoire du cinéma érotique et pornographique français, avec un magazine et un site vod. Une revue consacrée au cinéma érotique et pornographique français (un thème par mois), conjuguée à tous les temps, couplée à un dictionnaire (en 24 livrets) consacré aux longs métrages en 16 et 35 mm… et une heure de VOD gratuite tissée de courts métrages pornos clandestins ou amateurs entre 1920 et 1960, strip-tease et petits films naturistes des 50’s et 60’s, pour la plupart issus de collections privées. Etait-ce suffisant pour stimuler la pénétration de CInerotica? Assurément!

When Dracula meets Heavy Metal
In 2010 Christopher Lee will be the leading voice of "Heavy Metal Opera" named Charlemagne.
Charlemagne is a concept album with original words and symphonic metal music.
Composer Marco Sabiu, best known for his collaborations with Kylie Minogue, Take That, Pavarotti, Morricone, has created a truly epic canvas by introducing modern metal symphonies, in a style which resembles a movie score. Marie-Claire Calvet, a graduate from Bristol University, transports the listener into "The Dark Ages", with a very powerful storyline and mesmerising lyrics. A full orchestra, heavy metal musicians, choir and special guest vocalists bring the legend of Charlemagne to life.
