highly recommended

Chris Cunningham is one of the most innovative music video directors in the field. Combining a passion for special effects (he built a robot for the JUDGE DREDD movie and picked-up an Oscar nomination for special effects in ALIEN 3) electronica and a dark sense of humor Cunningham has infiltrated the underground and the mainstream with his state-of-the-art video techniques. Included on this compilation are his amazing grotesque and groundbreaking videos for Aphex Twin as well as work from Madonna Portishead Bjork and Squarepusher. Additional features include behind the scenes material short films commercials (for Playstation and others) as well as work Cunningham submitted to the highly lauded "Flex" exhibition at the Royal Academy of Art in London.Tracks:1.

This is amazing:D

I am a big big fan of Chris Cunningham's work and I just love everything about this DVD. It has music videos that I love on them so I can show my family how brilliant he is. I was sad that they didn't have rubber Johnny on there but that is ok. The only thing that is really on this thing is music videos and one behind the scenes with Bjork and Chris. I would only recommend buying this if you want the music videos in your possession.

Trippy.

I bought this DVD to play in the background at my Halloween party. The videos are creepy and hilarious, and the DVD has a good mix of material. I wish it was longer, but honestly, I paid $4 for it and really feel like I got a great deal. Window Licker is fantastic.

Chris Cunningham: Bizarre Brit

Anyone worth their salt as an Aphex Twin fan should recognize this man's name instantly. The two go hand-in-hand like two schoolgirls skipping home from school. Besides that, the work Chris has done is nothing sort of remarkable. The efficiency of his make-up effects is above that of even some big budget films. Be it robots for Bjork, bleeding darkness in the desert for Madonna, or insane Asian children for Squarepusher, the depth that Chris delves into his videos is staggering. For the disk itself, it includes several commercials (such as a peculiar PlayStation 1 promotional commercial, an unused "smashing" Levi jeans commercial, and a car commercial where the shifing car gears are compared to a well-rehearsed bodybuilder), a couple video commentaries, and some personal works he's done. However, it isn't all good. The material on the disk itself is amazing, but they show clips of videos Chris has done, but you cannot watch them on the DVD. It's sort of a tease when you see such interesting looking videos, but only to glimpse them for about 2 seconds. No mention of hidden videos is present, and never arose through many viewings, so it could be just that: No extra videos. Other than this lack of suggested material, it is still very much worth a buy. If you like Aphex Twin, or any sort of bizarre music videos, it is worth every cent.
