    I watched this last night, it was on the El Mariachi special features. I f**king loved it, i thought it genius. It really gave me some inspiration to make my own short film, Bedhead was probably so easy to make but the outcome was priceless. Anyone else seen it ?

I think its called Bedhead lol, i wasnt in my right state of mind when i saw it.

I love "Bedhead" --
This used to be shown on "USA Up All Night!" back when I had cable --
I love the sisters at the breakfast table, including the 4-year-old who has to dress up like a '40's Film Noir starlet --
The eating of the cockroach and the disgust that leads to superpowers . . . well, the whole thing is just a brilliant little exercise in what a short film can do --
I've seen it 4 or 5 times now, as it makes its way into different film festivals & short-subject showcases -- I even like the stupidly obvious dummy being dragged around by the bike!!!
Viva Bedhead!!!

I have no idea what this means.

Rodriguez is pretty much a poster boy for 'on the cheap' grunge backyard filmmakers everywhere and this is a great example of such a thing.  El Mariachi too on that note.
