Thought some of you folks might get a kick out of this story on RS.com

Meet the King of Stoner Rock Movies (Just in Time for 4/20!)

By now most everybody (stoned or otherwise) knows that watching The Wizard of Oz while listening to Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon unspools a motherload of eerie synchronicities. But did you know that the same thing happens when you combine Led Zeppelin IV and The Fellowship of the Ring? Or The Matrix and Metallica’s “Black Album”?

nice work. I knew your hard work getting yourself out there would come to something.

Thanks R_Sammy

Thanks R_Sammy,

It’s a good feeling to know that my contemporaries are rooting for me. The RS article has increased my web traffic quite a bit, even coming from foreign language web sites. The next step is a press release, and I have a web friend who writes for a living working on it as we speak.

Ebert and Roper and all the other big time film critics are about to get a package from The DeVille, and then we’ll see what shakes loose!

Meanwhile I’m diligently working on sync number eighteen, “Logan’s Revolt!” (“Logan’s Run” with Powerman 5000’s “Tonight The Stars Revolt!”) This one has some pretty amazing Rainbow Connections:

First of all there’re the white, yellow, green or red stars in the future-worlders’ palms and the title of the CD “Tonight The Stars Revolt!”. And, in the end of the movie they finally revolt by overthrowing the master computer.

Then there’s artwork. The robot, The Son of X-51 from inside the CD booklet bears an uncanny resemblance to the robot “Box” from “Logan’s Run”.

And finally there are the names. In the movie, besides “old man”, some of the characters are Logan 5, the baby Logan 6, Jessica 6, Francis 7, and Mary 2. Now the band members -- are you ready for this? -- Spider 1, Dorian 27, Al 3, M33 and Adam 12!

And I haven’t even mentioned the things that sync up have I? LOL I hope you guys will check it out when it’s finished.

The numeric transmission five triple zero was received repeatedly, without interruption, for eight full days. It stopped suddenly on the ninth...and that's when the destruction began... began...began...

First attempts

My first attempts were to start from the start of the film but that didnt work out, and i also tried it from the 'potential plane crash' scene but that didnt work either so i went for the climax of the film.

Super Amazing

Will this article be in the main Rolling Stone Magazine?
It is very flattering and sheds us in a positive light (even if we are labled as stoner movies). Good Job!

longer version of the story

Thanks Karl. Evan a wrote a much longer version of the story for the magazine, but no word yet on when. I guess we'll know when we see it in print. (And I'm still lobbying for the cover! LOL)

The DeVille
An eye is upon you!
