Vileness Fats - Whatever Happened To Vileness Fats?

Whatever Happened To Vileness Fats?

In 1984, The Residents discovered that the state of video technology had advanced to the point where they could salvage their old 1/2" Vileness Fats work and transfer it to VHS. They created a half-hour video from their original fourteen hours of footage and created an all-new soundtrack, releasing the result as Whatever Happened To Vileness Fats?.

The new video focused on Arf and Omega's story, from the Atomic Shopping Cart battle to the knife fight at the nightclub. It also spends a lot of time on Steve's mother, but touches only briefly on the Bell Boys, Lonesome Jack and Weescoosa. Whatever Happened To Vileness Fats? has very little dialogue and doesn't worry too much about getting a coherent story across.

Famous quotes containing the words happened and/or vileness:

    We had to take the world as it was given:
    The nursemaid sitting passive in the park
    Was rarely by a changeling prince accosted,
    The mornings happened similar and stark
    In rooms of selfhood where we woke and lay
    Watching today unfold like yesterday.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    Sun and moon and day and night and man and beast
    each with a splendor
    which man in all his vileness cannot
    set aside; each with an excellence!
    Marianne Moore (1887–1972)
