FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: IN STORES(US) OCTOBER 3, 2005
ZOETROPE is a fascinating feast of dark visuals. Part dream, part
nightmare, pure genius.
--Gregg Hale, producer, "The Blair Witch Project", "Altered".
Charlie Deaux's ZOETROPE is a trip! A hellride into the vivid and
disturbing imagination of a mad young filmmaker. Deaux has interpreted
Kafka's Penal Colony and made it his own peculiar vision of alienation,
torture, and mindbending depravity. The stark cinematography and
expressionistic art direction are aptly nightmarish. The excruciating
pace grinds along with the slow turns of the thumbscrews.
ZOETROPE is sure to please all fans with a taste for torture. Watch it
with a stiff drink.
--Scott Kosar, writer "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre", "The Amityville
Horror", "The Machinist".
""Deaux and Lustmord's collaboration presents a world that stirs the murky
depths of the subconscious and infects one's dreams. "--ajones tool

ZOETROPE is a haunting and explosively surreal film set in an
apocalyptic, decaying world of the unimaginable .
Inspired by Franz Kafka's "In the Penal Colony", a man is imprisoned
for an unnamed crime and tortured by a nameless sadistic bureaucrat. As the
chilling night-mareunfolds, the prisoner peels away the layers of his own metaphysical
existence,inching ever closer to his inescapable fate.
Hatched from the fertile imagination of Director Charlie Deaux (System
of a Down,Mortiis), ZOETROPE's richly complex visuals and dark atmosphere cast a
spell of fear and terror far beyond its tightly edited eighteen minute length. Deaux's
obsessive attention to detail is reflected in every shot of this relentlessly paced
rollercoaster ride...
The music and sound design for ZOETROPE, composed by Lustmord,
compliment theharrowing visuals perfectly. Lustmord, AKA Brian Williams, is well known
for his film work (Underworld, Spawn, The Negotiator, Ghost in the Machine, The Crow,
BasketballDiaries, more) as well as his own releases, including his recently
released collaborationwith the Melvins "Pigs of the Roman Empire", and "Heresy", the recently
remasteredand reissued album that singlehandedly launched the "dark ambient" genre
when it wasfirst released.
Shot by renowned music video cinematographer James Hawkinson (Aphex
Twin, Tool,Missy Elliot, Lincoln Park, Gwen Stefani, Velvet Revolver, System of a
Down), the 35mm black & white film looks like footage unearthed from another time and
place. RobertBeebe, rising animator and Student Academy Award winner (for his animated short film,
"In the Aquarium"), created Oxberry animation for the film.
