More SCUMbaggeries!
Here is some footage from a very cultish-appearing Swedish stage production based on the work of Valerie Solanas. This is not necessarily connected to the video production recently discussed elsewhere. The item was uploaded in September, 2008.
Some might inform you that this is all very hip, cool, trendy, edgy, artsy, avant-garde and all of that. But to me, it just seems like a loud, steaming pile of obnoxious dreck and random mind-fuckery, a jolting one-way journey into a garbage-strewn cul-de-sac. The connection to Valerie Solanas is not much apparent except toward the end, where we see the girl with the pistol. I like the heavy-handed allusion to mushroom-tripping, and I reckon if you were high on 'shrooms it might make this stuff more interesting, or at least tolerable. Well. . . actually, I would just prefer to get good old-fashioned drunk!
The video description in the YouTube lowbar is as follows:
