what a fantastic piece of cinamatography....beautifully shot, great soundtrack too! ...really haunting with a perfect ending...and i agree with your sentiments...'motherfuckers!'

i've been a fan of this video for about a year and i keep coming back to it. i really think you have quite a talent for existentialist film. this has an eerie quality i can't quite put my finger on. i usually watch it listening to M83's "Gone" (no offense to Radiohead). Anyway, I keep hoping you'll put more, similar things up.
Thanks a lot! Kudos!

I lived right by the place, and went there as a kid. I remember how low rent it was even when operating. Apparently a kid died when his head hit the edge of the tank at the bottom, and the insurance skyrocketed. I love what has become of the place. I would love to shoot a movie there myself, this little film is beautiful. The loss of Innocence.

That is an awesome video......loved the effects and the way you shot it. Always wondered what it looks like up there. Much creepier than I thought. I enjoyed many good times ridin' that old slide back in the day.

Those mother fuckers tore Wet Willy's Waterslide down they completely demolished the top, and they put big piles of dirt in the middle of the slide about every 25 feet so it is quite unskatable! I feel sick... they destroyed a midwest legend. Ive always seen the slide as a beatiful piece of art and now it is gone.
