“The Story of Sarah & Juan” tells a tight but tender love story in just 2 minutes. Singer Haley Reinhart performs a cover of “Can’t Help Falling in Love with You,” and kudos to Energy BBDO and the production company Rattling Stick to make me cry halfway through.

The hounds of hell are finally being unleashed, the trailer for Gutterdämmerung is here! Slash, Joshua Homme, Lemmy, Grace Jones, Iggy Pop, Justice, Henry Rollins, Slayer’s Tom Araya, Volbeat, Mark Lanegan, Nina Hagen and Jesse Hughes all star in Bjorn Tagemose’s dark rock and roll fairy tale.
The film is set in a world where God has saved the world from sin by taking from mankind the Devil’s ‘Grail of Sin’…..the Evil Guitar. The Earth has now turned into a puritan world where there is no room for sex, drugs or rock ‘n’ roll.
From up on high in heaven a “punk-angel”, Vicious (portrayed by Iggy Pop), looks upon the world with weary bored eyes. Behind God’s back, Vicious sends the Devil’s guitar back to earth and sin in all its forms returns to mankind.
An evil puritan priest (Henry Rollins) manipulates a naive girl to retrieve the guitar and destroy it. On her quest to find the Devil’s Grail Of Sin, the girl is forced to face the world’s most evil rock and roll bastards. Throughout her journey, she has a rival in the form of a rock chick determined to stop her from destroying the instrument.
You might think a bass guitar is pretty much useless without its strings. But that didn’t stop YouTuber Davie504 from performing a solo. Watch as he uses the bass’ various parts – including the buzz from its audio jack – to make some music.
To celebrate the 40th anniversary theatrical re-release of ‘Monty Python and the Holy Grail’ and the release of the 40th anniversary Blu-Ray, DVD & limited edition castle gift set, the British comedians put together this video of Terry Gilliam’s lost animations from the film.
The film received a 97% “Fresh” rating on Rotten Tomatoes, with the consensus: “a cult classic as gut-bustingly hilarious as it is blithely ridiculous”. In the US, the film was selected as the second best comedy of all time in the ABC special Best in Film: The Greatest Movies of Our Time; in the UK, readers of Total Film magazine ranked the film the fifth greatest comedy film of all time, and a similar poll of Channel 4 viewers placed the film sixth (2000).
