Dogs In Quicksand (BLU-RAY)

Welcome to Sidney. A small, midwestern town with an undeniably eccentric assortment of inhabitants. Lisa hires a prostitute as a present for her husband’s birthday but all he really wants is a committed dance partner. Ray’s clandestine extramarital affair miraculously causes his wife to become a psychic joke writer. When Mitch’s promiscuous secretary turns up murdered in his office, the tangled web of sex, infidelity, and betrayal amongst the town’s residents makes nearly everyone a potential suspect. Toss in a detective with a wrestling fetish, P.I.’s paid in baked goods, and a homicidal lawyer grappling with a terminal medical diagnosis and you’ve got a regional, micro-budget whodunnit like no other. The Betacam shot feature debut from Champaign, IL based actor, filmmaker, and theater vet Mike Trippiedi (Amber Rose), Dogs in Quicksand seamlessly melds the quirky, darkly comedic aura of the Coen Brothers with the offbeat, small town murder mystery vibes of Twin Peaks. One of the ‘90s most acerbic SOV satires, Saturn’s Core is proud to present the Blu-Ray debut of Dogs in Quicksand; compiled under the supervision of director Mike Trippiedi and featuring over 4 hours of new and archival special features (including commentaries, documentaries, short films, and a 28-page booklet) chronicling the entire evolution of Trippiedi’s deviceful Shut Up and Do It Productions collective.
