GWAR: Blood-Bath and Beyond [DVD]

Blood Bath and Beyond is the name of a music video album by Gwar, released on DVD June 20, 2006. The DVD release includes videos, rarities and some live concert footage. Content The main content of the movie is set up like an awards show, where Oderus Urungus and Sleazy P. Martini reminisce with montages. They are the only two members of Gwar to make significant appearances. A brief cameo is made by Balsac the Jaws of Death at the end and several other Slave Pit Inc. employees are featured. The announcer at the awards show is played by Chris Bopst, who was the first person to play Balsac the Jaws of Death. A pornographic movie parody, starring Oderus and Sexecutioner, is set to an instrumental demo version of "Sick of You". Also included is the video for "Poor Ole Tom", directed by Dave Brockie and previously played in the background during live performances of the song. Green screen animation/compositing, opening animations and additional camera work were done by Ken Jordan, a fellow VCU Art School student during Gwar's conception. Ken was a classmate of Michael Derks in the Music School for one year and a fellow Art School student of Slave Pit foreman Bob Gorman in high school and at Virginia Commonwealth University. Notably, some of the audio playing during the live footage is sourced from both live Gwar releases and Let There Be Gwar.
