“I’ve been spaced out on acid. I sat on your face and thought I killed you.”

Through the 1970s there was a convergence between the occult, psychedelia and pornography, with an increasing number of films as likely to have a black mass as a pizza delivery. Occult scholar D. Bauler (of Medroxy Progesterone Acetate) and sexorcist Mark Freado (of Mil Kdu Des) have joined forces to release upon the world a collection of excerpts from over twenty such films, connected in order to fully expose the hidden connections between these films while providing a live score (as the ‘liminal auditory intelligence’ Night Pumpkin) we hope will illuminate and confuse in equal measure.

From Faustian bargains to flying Phantasm-style dildos, from swampland necromancers to German teenage devil cults, we’ll be keeping it more wand and cup than pickles and beaver, though obviously with material such as this viewer discretion is advised. Intended to function as an actual ceremonial ritual, FORKED TONGUE IN CHEEK shall open a portal to a world beyond our own, entering into our world, the secret and true obsidian skeleton beneath the heaving flesh of this world.
