BURROUGHS. It's one of the strangest (and most prescient) films of the decade. The film was made in Hamburg and Berlin, and directed by Klaus Maeck 'Muscha' (who directed several punk films).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe lead roles are played by Christiane F and FM Einheit from Neubauten, who also contributed to the film's score. Genesis P-Orridge, the kingpin of the English industrial scene, also appears as a priest of the Black Noise faith. Author William S. Burroughs portrays an insurrectionist salesman of audio equipment (and contributes spoken word to the soundtrack), and American cult actor Bill Rice plays a detective. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSOFT CELL contributed their classic 'Seedy Films', while MATT JOHNSON from THE THE wrote a frenetic, deformed song for the film that is both fantastic and painful to listen to, and\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"bcTruncateMore\"\u003e EINSTÜRZENDE NEUBAUTEN's 'Compressed Metal' is sublime.
