Press Release: Cereal Killerz, a new paintball film classic released on DVD!
Cardiff by the Sea, CA – Tuesday, January 18, 2004: Monkey with a Gun, the new production company headed by Patrick Spohrer, the director of PUSH and Sunday Drivers, is pleased to announce after a year-and-a-half in the making their new film Cereal Killerz is now available on DVD. They began shipping it last week to stores across the USA, Canada, and Germany, which means it is probably at a store near you. Once again, Patrick has directed a film that is setting record sales from pre-orders and rave reviews from viewers. The film is destined to become this year's hottest selling paintball DVD.
Cereal Killerz highlights specific prominent individuals in paintball in a way no other paintball film has been able to capture in the past. “We have hand picked some of the best tournament players in the world and some of the best mentors in the sport to feature in the film,” says Bonnie DeMenge, the Director of Marketing for Monkey with a Gun. “We have this amazing group consisting of Chris LaSoya from Infamous, Rocky Knuth from the Naughty Dogs, Bob Long the Captain of Bob's Long's Ironmen, Oliver Lang and Alex Fraige from Dynasty, Davey Williamson and Matty Marshall from XSV, Fred Halmone from the Ton Tons, Ron Kilbourne the Captain of the Bushwackers, and Max Lundqvist from Joy Division, together in one film. This crew truly gives paintball the recognition it deserves as an extreme sport.”
Patrick is extremely pleased with his newest creation. Evidently, those who have already purchased the film are too. One player, “Legitkid,” posts on PbNation.com, “ [this is] not a movie, but a piece of art…the type of quality that you see in a 5 star high budget movie.” “Insaneplayer” posts, “I have to say this movie has got some of the best footage I have seen.” Perhaps this is due to the fact that Patrick spends weeks, merely color correcting every shot of the 65-minute film. This is just one example of the attention to detail in this project.
A tremendous amount of effort was put into making this film unique among the previous films in the paintball community. You will notice this from the moment you pick up the DVD. The impressive packaging sets it apart from the rest. A DVD case with a printed slipcover was selected. The slipcover pulls off to reveal the equally notable packaging inside, a foldout case decorated with hand-drawings of each of the ten players featured in the film.
“The players are incredible. When you follow players like Oliver Lang, Alex Fraige, Chris LaSoya, Matty Marshall and others that are at the top of their game and you film them for a whole year, you can bet there is going to be some unreal footage there,” says Bonnie. “Mix these player's talent with Patrick's filming and editing ability and you're in for a treat.” Get a taste of this, by checking out a trailer of the film on the Monkey with a Gun website, www.monkey-with-a-gun.com .
“We had a tremendous amount of assistance in the production of this film. We are very grateful for the support of National Paintball Supply, JT USA, Worr Game Products, WDP, and Smart Parts in the production of Cereal Killerz. The music labels we worked with were also very generous in providing us with tons of great music to use in the film. Interscope Records, Vagrant Records, Jade Tree, and Bay Root Productions had the perfect mix of songs to collaborate with the players segments. Our goal was to pick songs that actually matched the player's personality,” continues Bonnie. To handle the numerous emails and posts asking about the sound tract Monkey with a Gun has set up a link from their homepage www.monkey-with-a-gun.com to iTunes where many of the songs from Cereal Killerz are available to purchase.
Amazing players, amazing action, amazing cinematography, accompanied by an amazing soundtrack makes up Cereal Killerz. Own it now on DVD!
