Nasty Neckface is a deranged artist and in his Wicked Workshop show all his creations come to life in a sick and twisted way. He’s an endangered freak with a melted mind, and all he cares about is keepin’ the workshop open and his creations alive! But with an evil landlord breathing down his back with threats of eviction, a sorceress love interest who might just want to steal his powers and a demon puppet sidekick who can't help but cause chaos- things are destined to get hectic. So sit back and enjoy the hell ride of magic and mayhem.

FRUIT OF THE VINE is a super 8mm film that documents the incredible and often dangerous lengths that skateboarders go to in order to ride deserted, empty swimming pools. It is not a historical documentary, but a collection of stories shot in 1999 while Coan and Rick traveled from southern California to Seattle and around the east coast in search of pools to ride. FRUIT OF THE VINE profiles the people who search for, find, break into, and ultimately glean some use out of these pieces of the American suburban wasteland.
