With its quick pace and multi camera shooting style, Melonhead Vision, (IMHO) is quickly becoming the best movie to come out of Dorky Head Productions. The film runs just over 37 minutes, but seems like it is much quicker. This is a good thing. King Kong's only drawbacks were its long and uninteresting scenes, particularly in the first half hour. Melonhead Vision does not suffer from this problem. The film gets to the point, develops the characters, and leaves you satisfied in the space of 38 minutes. This could be compliments of the script but most likely its the story of the film that grants it's greatness. The script was designed for a multicam shoot and this is what you get. Also a big factor in the films success IS the closeness to the script, and the occasional improv. Stu Supremecy and World War III relied primarily on visuals and scripts at the time were not as important, and these films suffer as a result, but Melonhead Vision is a new breed of film all together. The DVD was specially designed for progressive scan TVs and DVD players, and this increase of quality may also be a plus. It is still compatable on any and all DVD players thanks to its 15+ hour encoding process. The DVD also took longer to encode than expected, running near 2 hours for ONE DVD. This is also a good sign for compatability
Melonhead Vision will hit DVD shelves by the end of this month, that is unless the postal service is gay as it has been.
