Out of print on DVD...



Not entirely sure how I first heard about this film, but despite however curious I was--and still AM--to see it, I was disappointed to discover that it's out-of-print on DVD, and actually created this IMDB page for it hoping to create more awareness about the film & connect with other fans who may have seen it (if for no other reason than to get further information about its production, content, etc for this entry). Certainly the mystery behind it isn't/wasn't helped by Williams' having killed himself before the film was even officially edited and completed...

Anyway, don't know enough about how sizable Williams' fanbase is that I could hope that they'd reissue the DVD, but in the meantime any further information would be much appreciated. Thanks!

I quite like this short movie from the legendary Rozz Williams... it's certainly had an effect on my own work, and has led me to check out other weird, subversive works in the same vein. I have the Cult Epics DVD release limited to 666 copies, which came with a reproduction of the book the pig-headed character reads during the film.

Pig definitely isn't original - it borrows a lot of elements from the works of the Vienna Action Group and other subversive artists, film-makers and photographers, that I'm sure Rozz was aware of; in any case, i dig Pig. =D

i have a copy of the soundtrack which contains the movie on it. it was extremely rare. luckily my brother had two copies of the soundtrack, the vhs and the dvd. he sold me the soundtrack for twenty dollars one day. i could try and burn it for you if you'd like. i loved it. i feel like it really captured the demons rozz was trying to fight off during his last days.

being released on DVD on September 21 by E1 Entertainment (it will also include 1334 which I think is some sort of sequel)
