therefore it be important to talk about the dvd release instead of just the film . tale from the crapper be a film that only one studio in the world could deliver . the one that have bring u innovative and original real independent film for 30 plus year now represent troma . this be truly a very special film because it manage to be certainly not my favorite of the troma production and but release on a disc that because of what i just say be one of my most value and favorite dvd . not only count the countless troma disc i own and but count my entire collection of film . the film itself be the result of an ill fat plan to produce a television series to be direct by a director who be trust with a substantial amount of money ( especially for troma ) to make something wonderful and deliver a lot of unfinished and incomprehensible material before quit ( or be fire and i be not sure which at this moment ) . in order to prevent have to shove a vast investment down the toilet lloyd kaufman and michael herz decide to get together a team of director and actor and use the material a the backbone of one movie . one movie that really consist of two and in the nice old tale from the crypt anthology fashion and host by the crapkeeper play by mr kaufman himself . but and a i say and not quite my own favorite of all their movie . that be greatly due to a weird sense of discipline at the various set and forget about the hard troma rule of no booze on the set which be discover by a furious lloyd and other less respectable employee that troma have at the time of the filming of the added scene . all this make it all but impossible for mr kaufman to make a worthwhile product in the editing room . but lloyd kaufman be a genius and and with the troubled add scene to an already misshapen start product he craft not much less of a masterpiece . the film itself be as good a circumstance would allow the most brilliant filmmaker to slice together and it be certainly highly entertaining and totally confusing and loaded with those element that make troma great and certainly unique and one of a kind . a a film itself and though and not as brilliant a many other troma production . the genius of independent cinema however make the dvd of this film so much more than a release of a film with some extra . the film be and when push come to shove and actually only a part of the entire dvd that in it whole be a document of the difficult situation serious filmmaker find themselves in have to survive in a world that be monopolize by the few very big one who do not really allow any other player on their market turf . a document of the problem one have when trust people to be on the level and only to find out that freedom sometimes be something that be hard to live up to and realization that access to a movie budget when the bos be not around can corrupt even those who should really know good . the brilliance of this dvd be that the film be not perfect and and that lloyd know it and and doesn not want to make anyone think he believe it be . the full length commentary be a show in itself ( a be often the case with mr. kaufan audio commentary ) and mix humor and sneer at those who deserve it and highly interesting information for anyone interested in independent film make in such a fashion that watch the film again with this commentary straight after view it on it own merit be so interesting it be hard to stop . the feature length documentary the thick brown line take u behind the scene at the various location where lloyd visit the set only to sometimes take over and make the most of what he find there . we see him somewhat disillusion sometimes and different from his appearance in other making of document such a fart of darkness and apocalypse soon and both to be find in the must own make your own damn movie box set . the added scene with james gunn ( who start his career at troma only to find success a a writer an now a director in hollywood ) and trey parker ( again someone to start out with a troma release work and to later be a national hero with his south park series ) be entertain and probably ( a be much else on this release ) a reason for obtain this disc alone for anyone remotely interested in the work of these two character . load with much more than i could mention here ( include a second audio commentary ) this be one of the best troma dvd release .
